No such option error after installation #21

Open rragundez opened 5 years ago

rragundez commented 5 years ago

When trying to render I get

latextext.py: error: no such option: --id

selection_009

That's weird, never saw this error and no idea where this "--id" option is coming from. Where did you download the extension and what OS and Inkscape version do you use?

rragundez commented 5 years ago

I cloned the repo and ran the install.sh, I did have to change the path though, because the Inkscape extensions directory is in another place as shown below

selection_011

OS: Ubuntu 18.04 Inkscape: 0.94

Ok, I see... the Snap package uses a different path prefix for everything. Not ideal when it should work together with other tools on the same system. You could manually copy the extension files to /home/rodrigo/snap/inkscape/4274/... Somewhere there should be an extensions subfolder below this path.

Is Inkscape 0.9.4 the current development version? Maybe the extension format changed and now requires this new --id parameter?

rragundez commented 5 years ago

Yeah so I changed the paths in the install.sh and it does appear in my extensions inside inkscape. The version that I have is actually 0.92

Hi, I have the same problem, with the same inkscape version, but ubuntu 16.4. I changed the paths in the install.sh but I still get the error latextext.py: error: no such option: --id is there something else that I have to change?

That's weird, I still cannot reproduce the issue here.... :(
