    Hi everyone and thank you in advance for your help.  I am using Window 11 64 bit.  I downloaded inkscape 1.1 using the msi. method.  The file I am using is an SVG that I imported.  In my extensions tab JTech Photonics extension appears to be already there (not sure if that is correct) and whenever I attempt to create the g code for the laser, I get the following message: 

     File "C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\laser.py", line 51
        def bezierslopeatt(((bx0,by0),(bx1,by1),(bx2,by2),(bx3,by3)),t):
                           ^
    SyntaxError: invalid syntax

    I'm not a computer person.  Is there any fix to this or am I missing something. 

    thanks again,

    chrismag

    I found the download page for the extension.  https://jtechphotonics.com/?page_id=2012

    Looking at the comments, it seems that this was released back in 2015 so it's probably not compatible with recent versions 1.0+ of Inkscape. Luckily you can time travel to an older version which will probably work for you.  https://inkscape.org/release/inkscape-0.92.5/

    Ok I'll try it.  Maybe that is the cause.  Thanks.
