Photoshop CS3 Scripting – Smart Object?
I am hoping someone can help me with a problem I am having. I am opening a photoshop document and maniputing the layers and exporting them via script. The only thing I am having a problem with is opening my Smart Object. Is there a way to open the smart object via script without double clicking on the little icon?
I can’t find this documented anywhere. The reason I need to do this is because I am adding images and making different layers visible in my smart object to change the look. This process is going to be working on a large scale, otherwise I would just do it manually.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

here is a function created from Script Listener to edit a Smart Object. Don’t forget to save and close the opened smart object to get the changes back to your original doc.
EditSmartObject()
// =======================================================
function EditSmartObject(){
var id6 = stringIDToTypeID( “placedLayerEditContents” );
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
executeAction( id6, desc3, DialogModes.NO );
