Oh wow, has this been updated to work with the current stable version of Inkscape? I know a lot of people will be happy to hear that!
Are the old sourceforge addresses still relevant? (I'm currently preparing a listing of all external extensions, so I want to make sure I have the right links.)
Good to hear! I just updated to 0.92.3 and the extension is working fine. Inkcut is now a separate application that the user must install.
I'm planning to remove the old sourceforge version, move everything to github (for those that may still want it), and focus on the new version, so please use the github and/or codelv links.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Hello everyone!
Is there any way to use this plugin with a standard Chinese laser engraver like the Eleksmaker?
Is the development of the windows version still current?
I Don't know if im posting this in the correct place. But I signed up and after I verified my accountI was unable to join the chat?
HERES WHERE I NEED HELP PLEASE.
Ive been Using The latest Package Inkscape/XQuartz on my mac for years with Signcut/extension - Fantastic.
Ive just installed ink cut using home-brew no Problem and seems to work fine (although I have not attempted to cut anything yet)
Ive been trying to find a plug in for inkscape so i can send the work straight to inkcut then I loose sign cut.
If this is possible please could some kind person help.
Thank you.
Thanks for the recent update. I can confirm that this works fine with my InkScape on Windows. Inkcut build information for Windows: https://wiki.fablabchemnitz.de/display/FCT/Setup+InkCut+Plotter+Software
regards, Mario

Hi,
Inkscape 1.0/python > 3.5 support is coming soon, last issue is https://github.com/inkcut/inkcut/issues/247
Traceback (most recent call last):
