what would be the alternative? to "kill" the python script on click?
maybe the button should just be removed, the only effect of this button seems to be that it reverts the changes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to inkscape in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/591435 Title: Cancel button does not halt extensions Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool: Triaged Status in “inkscape” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: The "Cancel" button does not properly halt execution of Inkscape extensions. This is not normally noticeable because extensions execute quickly. But for extensions that take a while-- i.e., those that you'd want to cancel --it turns out not to work. It appears to wait (possibly a very long time) for the extension to finish executing before stopping the operation. To replicate, select Extensions>Render>L-system. Set Order to 4. Click Apply, try to cancel the operation. If your computer is fast and that didn't take very long, set Order to 5, 6, or 7 to make the extension take longer to run.
