[Desktop-packages] [Bug 591435] Re: Cancel button does not halt extensions
Killing the process sounds (to me) like a real and acceptable solution to the issue. -- 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: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: The "Cancel" button does not properly halt execution of Inkscape extensions.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 591435] Re: Cancel button does not halt extensions
It has been more than five years since this issue has been reported.
The presence of this non-working button continues to cause user
frustration, occasionally manifested as additional bug reports and/or
requests for technical support.
I would ask that the developers consider simply hiding (or removing) the
button until such a time that a mechanism for halting extensions can be
determined and implemented.
The text that is presently displayed above the button ("EXTENSION_NAME"
working, please wait...) is clear enough. Simply removing the button is
a simple solution that will likely save user confusion and frustration.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1204732] Re: inkscape crashed with SIGABRT in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler()
It seems like the suggested patch fixes the symptom, not the underlying cause; I would have guessed that the description inx element would be the correct place to include desired whitespace. While we have removed the empty parameters in the Eggbot and Hershey Text extensions that caused the crash, we were indeed using them to provide whitespace, so the off-topic question is relevant for finding a workaround. -- 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/1204732 Title: inkscape crashed with SIGABRT in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler() Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool: In Progress Status in “inkscape” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am trying to run an eggbot from inkscape.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1204732] Re: inkscape crashed with SIGABRT in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler()
@~suv Thank you for the notice, and for verifying the cause. This issue (crashing with an empty param) does not seem to affect Inkscape prior to 0.48.4. @Hans Schepker (hschepker) Would have appreciated you filing the bug report with the Eggbot project directly, so that we could have gotten you up and running a couple of weeks sooner. (And so that we weren't adding to the load over here.) Please try the new version and let me know if that fixes it; we do not presently have a system that can reproduce this crash. http://code.google.com/p/eggbotcode/downloads/detail?name=eggbot_2013_08_11_2.3.4.zip -- 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/1204732 Title: inkscape crashed with SIGABRT in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler() Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool: Confirmed Status in “inkscape” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am trying to run an eggbot from inkscape.
