Hi! I love the concept for your extension. I downloaded the most recent version and got this error on export:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "export_layers.py", line 112, in <module> _main() File "export_layers.py", line 108, in _main e.affect() File "C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\extensions\inkex.py", line 268, in affect self.effect() File "export_layers.py", line 39, in effect self.export_layers(layer_dest_svg_path, show_layer_ids) File "export_layers.py", line 66, in export_layers doc.write(dest) File "lxml.etree.pyx", line 1685, in lxml.etree._ElementTree.write (src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:40410) File "serializer.pxi", line 407, in lxml.etree._tofilelike (src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:81512) IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied I'm on a windows 7 professional machine with Inkscape 0.91 r13725.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

I'm not sure, but looks like you don't have permissions to write the file in the destination.

You're right. I don't think Windows gives applications write access to the Program Files directory. Looks like I'll need to submit a bug to the inkex.py extension people to see what's up.

Did you ever get a reply? I'm having the same problem. Tried all sorts of places to export to, but always "permission denied"
