Does anyone know how to implement extended xml tag editor in inkscape?
Before several years I wrote system for embroidery pattern generator from svg based on private xml tags, but simple XML editor included in inkscape makes it cumbersome.
Some very basic functionality of this stitch generator can be seen at: https://youtu.be/VKle5ApsMnA
Editor should have functionality very similar to interface of external scripts but before showing dialog, it should first collect actual data from svg by calling proper extension script method (eg .getparams() ) and prepare file similar to inkscape dialog definition file.inx with <param name= ... > and then dynamically generate dialog to allow user modify sewing parameters, after that call classical extension .effect() method to do changes in svg.
I want to implement it but I'm totally lost in inkscape source code. I think that all functionality is already somewhere in inkscape but I need someone to show me the way.
