Correct !
the code provided in the adobe webpage work even on my PS CC.2015
but in order to work you need to convert smart Object to linked (Layer ---> Smart Object ---> Convert to linked).
Code: Select all
try {
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID("Lyr "), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt") );
var layerDesc = executeActionGet(ref);
var soDesc = layerDesc.getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID('smartObject'));
var thePath = soDesc.getPath(stringIDToTypeID("link"));
alert (thePath);
} catch (e) {};
