Hi,

Actually I'm using C#. and you know for example we write path b=new path() etc. to create an object in c#

But i couldn't do this when i write an extension.

How can i do this ? 

Just i would like to create an path and add attribute or change its values etc...

i found this link

https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Generating_objects_from_extensions#A_simple_example

am i right in road ?

It's a bit out of date.

You can still use a dictionary to define the style or do it manually for each item. I've put an example of each below.

import inkex
from inkex import PathElement
my_path = PathElement()

# add one property to style
my_path.style['stroke'] = 'blue'
# update style from dictionary 
my_style = {'fill': 'red', 'stroke-width': '2px'}
my_path.style.update(my_style)
# add path attribute
my_path.set('d', 'M 10 15 50 75 40 175 z')
# add path to current layer
current_layer = self.svg.get_current_layer()
current_layer.append(my_path)

Hi inklinea,

I have created a solution as below.

parent = self.svg.getElementById("myParentLayer")

myPathElement=etree.SubElement(parent,inkex.addNS('path','svg'))

of course i added myPath style,id,attribute etc.

But your code

from inkex import PathElement()

my_path = PathElement()

simple and looks better , really thank you
