Not installing #38

Closed travelerhj closed 3 years ago

travelerhj commented 3 years ago

I have this working on 2 computers that were installed over a year ago. (windows 10). I am trying to install this on a new laptop (windows 10). I have just downloaded the MSI this week, and I'm running Inkscape version: 0.92.4 (5da689c313, 2019-01-14)

After I install, I only get the Schroff Box Maker under the "Laser Tools" menu item under extensions. I know I'm supposed to get another option (based on my other 2 computers that work). I have copied the 3 files into both: -%appdata% roaming/extensions/ and also under: c:\program files \ inkscape \share \ extensions.

I have tried uninstalling inkscape and reinstalling. I have downloaded these files as a zip. thoughts?

Hi, thanks for using TabbedBoxMaker and I'm sorry the documentation isn't clear on this but the current version of this extension only supports Inkscape 1.0 and later. You can either upgrade Inkscape (recommended) or try installing an earlier version of the extension from here: https://github.com/paulh-rnd/TabbedBoxMaker/commits/master. Any version prior to the 1.0 upgrade should work on Inkscape 0.92.x.

Let me know if this doesn't solve your problem and I'll reopen the issue.
