Command Type Constants

The following constants can be used anywhere in macros or scripts in place of the actual values.

If you are retrieving the value of a property or parameter, scripts or macros will return the integer value, whereas Inspector will display the constant equivalent.

KEEP IN MIND:

When using constants in the script editor, each constant must be prefaced by nl.
