The script for obtaining the Bezier curve coordinates of the deformed smart object was not fou

[zeyou36248626sb54]

I am writing a script that obtains the Bessel curve coordinate data after obtaining the deformation of the smart object, and I didn’t find the relevant API.

const layers = app.activeDocument.layers;

for(var i = 0; i < layers.length; ++i) {

  var layer = layers[i];

  if (layer.kind === LayerKind.SMARTOBJECT) {
    alert(layer.kind);
    // layer, Layer is an smart object, but the smart object data cannot be obtained from Layer
  }
}

I don’t understand what you mean. 

Please explain with the help of screenshots/sketches.

I want to get these coordinate data

Does this help?

Could you please post meaningful screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible? 

Is a Smart Object with a Warp applied the active Layer?

Is there any corresponding action documentation

Is there any corresponding action documentation

By @zeyou36248626sb54

What do you mean? 

What good would Actions be in this case? 

[zeyou36248626sb54]

Want to see some "ACTINDEScripts" related documents, improve the skills

Thing is ExtendScript Photoshop Scripting is on legacy status and may »vanish« at some point in the future. 

So if you are (relatively) new to the matter you may want to focus on UXP Scripting right away. 

For ExtendScript you could do a search for »photoshop-scripting-guide-2020.pdf« and »photoshop-javascript-ref-2020.pdf«. 

You could also look into @DavideBarranca ’s book/s, I think he has published on both ES and UXP Sxripting.

It can be successful with my other file, which may be caused by different operations. You have helped me, thank you

Blue dot coordinate data

[c.pfaffenbichler]

May I ask how you intend to process/use the information? 

[javaer]

The default is 16 control points, which is normal. If you add control points manually, an error will be reported. customEnvelopeWarp does not exist

[c.pfaffenbichler]

customEnvelopeWarp does not exist

Can you provide the image file for testing?

The script works fine, thank you very much。
