Imagetracer.js for Inkscape
Mario Voigt
This extension is an InkScape wrapper for https://github.com/jankovicsandras/imagetracerjs. It utilized a standalone node.js executable to run the JavaScript code. It will be fed with embedded or linked images within InkScape. The big difference between this tracer and all other tracers in recent InkScape is the fact that it is capable of splitting an image into it's "isles". The regular tracers separate by colors but not by objects. That makes it hard to work with sometimes. Imagetracer.js will vectorize your beautiful image into a more beautiful SVG trace with separated infills (break apart into single surfaces like a puzzle), that means you get a lot of single areas. works for Linux and Windows

RealScale (resize by line of known length)
Maren Hachmann
Quickly resize (architectural) drawings by indicating a line and its length in real world units. Optionally scale the drawing with a specific scale factor and draw a scale rule. Version 1.2, Inkscape extension for Inkscape 1.2 and higher. Download most current version from here: https://gitlab.com/Moini/inkscape-realscale-extension/-/archive/master/inkscape-realscale-extension-master.zip Installation: Copy the files realscale.py and realscale.inx into the directory indicated in Edit -> Preferences -> System: User extensions Usage: • Import an architectural drawing / floor plan / map /... into Inkscape or open a file containing one. Make sure it is a single object (group it, if necessary). • Draw a straight line that connects two points in that drawing of which you know the distance in real life (for example, if you know how long a wall of your house in the drawing is, draw the line from one end of the wall to the other). • Select the line, then add the drawing to the selection. • Open the extension dialog: Extensions -> Scaling -> RealScale... • Enter the length of the line you just drew, as it is in the real world (for example, if your house wall is 10.5 m long, enter 10.50. • Select the unit you used (for your 10.50 m house, select m; for your 10 cm cardboard box, select cm) • If you intend to print the drawing, and the original object is bigger than the sheet, consider using a scale factor. • To do so, first select if you want to use a metric scale factor (based on mulitples of 5) or an imperial one (based on multiples of 2) or if you would like to enter your own scale factor. • Then, in the corresponding dropdown, or in the number entry field, select or enter the scale you would like to use. The dropdowns only offer scale factors for downscaling. In the 'Custom' field, however, you can also enter values smaller than 1 to upscale a drawing. • If you would like the scale rule to be drawn on the page, check the option 'Generate Scale Rule'. • Now choose the number of units the scale rule will comprise. Those will be doubled in the generated scale rule - e.g. it will show 10 cm to the left of the scale rule center (labelled 0) and 10 cm to its right. • Apply!

Contour Scanner And Trimmer
Mario Voigt
This tool helps you to find nasty contours which might bug you and prevent your work from being ready for production. It will find open contours, closed contours and self-intersecting contours. Self-intersecting contours can be closed or open contours so you can select this option additionally! Bentley-Ottmann algorithm is used to check for those intersections. The algorithm works with the accuracy of the selected paths (epsilons). Self-intersections usually happen if you just have large overlaps where the contour crosses itself like an 'eight' character for example. Using the highlighting it's easy to find contours with unproper path handles. While in a CAD system an area of of a surface can only be calculated if the contour is closed and clean, finding self intersections in InkScape is not required to do so. SVG format allows to calculate areas on open contours and self-twisted curves. This "artwork behaviour" makes it harder for handling machinery-like drawings for laser cutting, vinyl cutting or whatever. That's why we need to have extra sanity checks but we also have the great freedom of Inkscape. Finding self-intersecting contours does only work for curves with straight line segments (polylines) because it just calculates with a set of given XY points. It does not respect bezier curve segments. Bezier curves have no regular points but special handles, which define the slope of the curve per handle side (left and right). To properly handle a bezier curve we need to split the bezier curve in a lot of small linear segments (acting like infinitessimal solution). We can use the tool "Flatten Bezier to do this (will make your curve looking edgy or ugly possible). If you want to leave the shape of the line clean (bezier type, no edgy approximation) we can use Split Bezier (Subdivide) or Add Nodes instead. But remember that your calculated self-intersection points will only be an approximation then. The higher the subdivide count is the higher the precision of the calculated self-intersecting points coordinates will be.

Customise User Interface
Mr. Raven
This extension allows you to show or hide menu items and toolbar buttons in Inkscape. The purpose of this is to: - Hide user interface elements you don't want to see. - Make the interface simpler for educational purposes. - Tailor Inkscape towards a specialised working enviroment. I welcome comments, ideas, suggestions, bug reports. If you use it, please write something at the bottom of this page. Installation. Download the .zip file. Installation instructions and a manual are in the file "custui_Readme.html", which is included in the zip file. I will also submit this extension for review so it may become available in the extensions manager. Inkscape 1.0 on Windows misses a "HarfBuzz" library that is needed. If you use Inkscape 1.0 on Windows, you need to install the HarfBuzz library manually. Instructions are in the Readme file. Many thanks for testing and also advice and ideas: @Kirstie, @DoctorMo and @Adam.Belis Changes for version 0.3: - Change the interface too look a bit better - Add function to restore default settings - Make some more items in View menu immutable for Inkscape 1.1

Tabgen 3D Papercraft Extension
Sue Zakar
Tabgen Papercraft Extension for Inkscape 1.1 by Obzerving Use the tabgen extension to add tabs on pieces for assembling papercraft projects. Please read the important setup info below. After installing, it is available under Extensions->Papercraft->Tabgen Using it is very simple and straightforward. Select the path that you want to put tabs on. Run the extension. It will generate a new piece with tabs along the outside edge, and/or any enclosed path (i.e. along the inside of cutouts.) The tabs have scorelines. The path MUST contain only straight segments, as tabs cannot be generated on curves. Every segment will create a tab, so eliminate stray nodes. New version allows for selective tab placement. Options/Parameters The angle of the tab is the angle used at the edges of the tab. The height of the tab is how far away from the path the tab extends. The length of the dashline is how large any one cuts making up the score line is. Making this number too large may result in missing score marks. If zero is used, the score line will be solid, and will not be part of the path, but will be a separate path grouped with it. The choice for tab placement are outside, inside and both. This affects whether tabs are placed along the outer path, inner paths (holes), or both. Dimension units are the units in which you specify your setting for height and length. Keep this consistent with your document parameters.

Slic3r STL Input
Mario Voigt
STL Sliced Import (by Slic3r). Supports OBJ/OFF/PLY/STL as input file formats. How it works: - projects an STL file on the X-Y plane by cutting the objects into "slices" - each "slice" is a group of polygons, with a label indicating its z position - the polygons are converted to paths for better editing in inkscape - use Object → Rows & Columns → distribute the slices in a grid Warning: Requires Slicer 1.3.1-dev (the really latest build possible) docs: https://stadtfabrikanten.org/display/IFM/Slic3r+STL+Input based on stl input extension of Jürgen Weigert.

Paperfold
Mario Voigt
Paperfold is another flattener for triangle mesh files, heavily based on https://github.com/felixfeliz/paperfoldmodels by Felix Scholz aka felixfeliz. Possible input files are STL, Wavefront OBJ, PLY and OFF. To run this you need to install OpenMesh with python pip. The algorithm of paperfoldmodels consists of three steps: - Find a minimum spanning tree of the dual graph of the mesh. - Unfold the dual graph. - Remove self-intersections by adding additional cuts along edges. Reference: The code is mostly based on the algorithm presented in a by Straub and Prautzsch (https://geom.ivd.kit.edu/downloads/proj-paper-models_cut_out_sheets.pdf).

Dxf2papercraft
Mario Voigt
Unfold and import DXF into InkScape using dxf2papercraft. This is some kind of wrapper extension utilizing kabeja to convert the dxf output from dxf2papercraft into SVG. To make it work you need to install at least java. Works on Windows and Linux. dxf2papercraft itself is a tool to make flattened 2D output from a 3D DXF file. Note that kabeja and dxf2papercraft are really old tools. There might be a lot better solutions out there but this is a good starting point and it basically works :) You might have a look at https://inkscape.org/~MarioVoigt/%E2%98%85dxfdwg-importer and https://inkscape.org/~MarioVoigt/%E2%98%85inkscape-papercraft-unfold-stl too.

vpypetools - vpype for Inkscape
Mario Voigt
vpype is a command processor working with SVG files. It can do a lot of productive steps to optimize files for different purposes like pen plotting, laser cutting or the generation of creative artwork. vpype is really powerful and helps to extend Inkscape feature capability. vpype contains a lot of functionality which is included natively within Inkscape. The extension "vpype for Inkscape" does not deal with all features but with a set of important commands like linemerge, linesort, linesimplify, occult, etc. We can use it to shorten tool path lengths, remove hiddenlines and so on. vpype converts all elements into simple SVG elements like svg:line, svg:polyline and svg:polygon. They can be displayed properly in Inkscape, but they have no knot handles to edit (see https://alpha.inkscape.org/vectors/www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopicb51d.html?f=16&t=32562). We need to convert those elements to svg:path using key combination CTRL + SHIFT + C ("object to path"; do not use "stroke to path" because it will duplicate your outline with inset and outset contours). Our extension allows to do this conversion automatically. Documentation: https://stadtfabrikanten.org/display/IFM/vpypetools

Ungrouper And Element Migrator/Filter
Mario Voigt
This extension parses the selection and will put all elements into one single group. If you have a cluster with lots of groups and elements you will clean up this way (one top level group, all elements below it). If you select a single element or a set of elements you just wrap it like using CTRL + G (like making a usual group). You can also use this extension to filter out unwanted SVG elements at all. This tool is also able to drop elements with certain SVG tags to perform some kind of cleanup in the selection. You can drop elements like circle,ellipse,image,line,path,polyline,rect,text,tspan and some more. Notes: - includes "Remove Empty Groups" extension - includes "Apply Transformations" extension

Create Links (Breakaway Connectors)
Mario Voigt
To create tabs in Inkscape, we cannot properly use the integrated eraser tool. It will clip only in a cosmetic fashion but we do not get the real paths we need. Creating links (also known as microtabs, tabs, bridges, breakaway connectors, links, perforations) is sometimes required for laser cutting or vinyl cutting. This extension allows to pinch paths to create according segments - no cosmetic one's, but real segments. It will split up open or closed contours with user defined rules. To get best output please try to close open paths before using. Docs: https://stadtfabrikanten.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=104923235

Imaseq Helper
Croben
WHAT IS IMASEQ HELPER? Imaseq Helper is a free and open-source extension for Inkscape 1.0, released under the GPL version 3 license. This extension allows you to export PNG images by visibility or layers. You can also choose to make the extension duplicate a layer base on a setting, which is a common task when making a frame by frame animation. FEATURES • Export PNG image(s) to a fixed directory. • Export images using the layer name as a file name. • Batch export of rectangles or layers with incremented naming option. • Duplicate layers with incremented name and opacity of your choice. VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYXFYsGfj7U HOW IT WORKS? To make the extension work, you will have to create a layer that has a “rectangle object” in it. And it has to be a rectangle object, not a circle or rectangle path. This rectangle object will serve as a selection export area. Everything visible within the bounds of the rectangle will be exported as a PNG image. INSTALLATION 1. You must have Inkscape 1.0 installed. 2. Close Inkscape if it is open. 3. Copy or move the imaseq_helper.inx and imaseq_helper.py into Inkscape extension folder. • On Mac and Linux it is in ~/.config/inkscape/extensions. • On Windows it is in C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions. 4. Launch Inkscape. If you install it correctly, you should see “Imaseq Helper” on “Export” sub-menu under the “Extensions” menu. HOW TO USE? 1. Select an “Export Mode” • None – The extension will not export anything. • Visible – Everything visible within the rectangle object gets exported as a single PNG image. • All Layers – Every layer except for the bounds and sub-layers will get exported individually. 2. Set a “Bounds Layer” • Create a new layer, name it, then type the name on the input field. • Add a “rectangle object” and make sure it’s big enough and position it to capture the target view. 3. Give it a “File Name” • You can choose to input a file name or leave it blank to use the layer name. 4. Choose a “Directory” • Set a folder where exported images will be saved. 5. To “Overwrite” or not • If not checked existing file will not be overwritten unless the “Export Mode” is “All Layers” 6. Set image “DPI” • To determine the desired DPI select the “rectangle object,” open export window (Shift+Ctrl+E), go to the "Selection" tab, in the "Image size" section, you can see the DPI. • If you want to export using the dimensions of the rectangle object, you can set the DPI to a number lower than one like zero. 7. To “Duplicate Layer” or not • On the “Layer Settings” tab, you can set to duplicate the selected layer if the “Export Mode” is “Visible” or “None” 8. Set “Layer Opacity” • This slider will determine the opacity of the duplicated layer. FRIENDLY TIPS 1. Using “Multiple” Rectangle Objects • Will not guarantee correct file name order, because the rectangles may get exported randomly. In this case, consider moving the target images to its own layer and use “All Layers” as the export mode. 2. Setting Export Mode To “All Layers” • This mode produces temporary files equal to or more than the number of layers to be exported. Therefore, you are advised to clean these temporary at your convenience. • Setting a file name will not guarantee correct naming order, because layers may get exported randomly. So it is best to leave the file name blank and use the layer name instead. 3. Fixed Background For All Exports • If you have a background on a separate layer and want it to be visible on every export. You can make the background layer a child of the bounds layer. Just make sure you set the alpha or opacity of the rectangle object to zero. 4. Child Layers Are Not Exported Individually • If you have a group of layers, only the parent layer is exported. But if the child layers are visible, then they too will be captured on the exported image. 5. Export Using The Dimensions Of The Rectangle Object • If you set the DPI to zero, the dimension of the rectangle object will be used as the dimension of the image. But keep in mind that if the dimension in “pixels” is not a “whole number,” it will be rounded to the nearest one. Example 24.1 pixels will be 24 pixels, 99.5 pixels will be 100 pixels, etc. GITHUB PAGE https://github.com/crobengames/Imaseq-Helper

Convert To Polylines
Mario Voigt
This extension takes the points of a path and make a straight polyline out of it. Nothing less, nothing more. You can do the same with default InkScape UI but it might be quicker to use in some use cases. This extension handles duplicate points on a path by removing them.

Ink dbus
inklinea
Ink Dbus ------------------------------------ 21.01.23 update to automatically detect the python path on windows so should work if you have installed Inkscape to non default folder. ------------------------------------ A test of the new dbus features of Inkscape 1.2.1+ This allows an Inkscape session to be controlled from a separate gui. It supports running basic macros. There are 3 branches of dbus actions: Application / Window / Document Choose an action - add a parameter if required, click run to activate the action. Double click the action to add to the macro list. The items in the macro list can be toggled on / off or deleted. The macro list supports drag reordering of items. You can set a number of repeats - for example you could simplify 72 times if you wanted to. For Ubuntu 20+ everything should work. For Windows 10+ The 'Window' branch of dbus does not work. I have raised an issue on Inkscape gitlab for this. Please note: It does help if you have some knowledge of how the command line works. Most of the Application dbus actions mirror the command line and its parameters. Some of the commands act as 'flags' which are set, for example if you set export-area-page to True, then it has to be set to False again before you can use export-area-drawing set to True. As a quirk export-area which takes dimensions, once used you cannot go back to export-area-page etc. for that session. This is a new feature of Inkscape - so be prepared for exciting things to happen unexpectedly.

Prover iLock attributes
hugo_at_prover
This extension opens up a dialog that allows the user to set some Prover iLock specific attributes. The attributes decide how Prover iLock will display the svg file, in particular they are used to associate layers to "visualization features" that are used to dynamically change the drawn symbol based on the current state in the tool.

Cleanup Styles
Mario Voigt
This plugin is a bit similar to Blueprint Maker but has a more special use case and a lot of options! It is useful for adjusting the stroke width and opacity of large groups. Usually for good laser cutting the line width has to match a maximum width to be recognized as a hairline. Additionally often opacity issues cause that lines are missed by laser cutter.

Horizontal Lines Effect (hlines)
Sue Zakar
Inkscape extension for "unwinding" paths For each selected path element consisting of straight segments, this extension creates an additional path element consisting of horizontal line segments which are the same size as the original line segments. Installing: Copy hlines.inx and hlines.py into your Inkscape user extensions directory. Where is that? Open Inkscape and go to the System section of the Preferences menu (Edit --> Preferences --> System). You will find a User extensions item containing the path to your user extensions directory. NOTE: As of this time, this extension works under Inkscape 1.0, but not the 1.1 release candidate. However, it will work on 1.1 (and above) by commenting out line 45 of hlines.py and uncommenting line 46. Update: 06/24/2021 new version handles transforms better
