Cannot find nor start the extension after installation #267

System: Artix Linux Extension installed from AUR Arch repository into /usr/share/inkscape/extensions/ Inkscape 1.3 Device: Silhouette Cameo 4 via USB, detected via CUPS (no driver, though).

Problem: I cannot find extension (not listed under "Manage extensions...") nor any option related to sending commands to the plotter. I got stuck - please advise.

What do you mean exactly by cannot find extension Do you have the menu extensions - export - send to silhouette?

KanenasPL commented 1 year ago

Nope. The extensions - export only contains:

Export layer slices...
Guillotine
Plot... (greyed out)

So that's an issue with AUR package. You may open an issue over there... The installation location needs to correspond to Inkscapes expectations.
