Hi Dmitry, This looks really interesting (and there's quite a few files there too). For this kind of output where it's not an svg file, we've typically recommended writing python extensions as they're easier to include in builds, release new versions out side of the inkscape release and support. Given that you've already got this solution working for your own needs. I on't suppose you'd be interested in translating it to python? There's already a yaml library available and inky.py extension module provides access to all the svg element tree. But I understand this is asking a lot considering all the work you've put in to the C version in your branch.

Dmitriy - the "perspective" extension shows how you can save out a selected element and call inkscape on it to do work (in this case find bounds) and get values back - all without restarting inkscape. Hope it helps you.

Dear Inkscape Team, it took me a while (vacation, hospital, other things to do ...) but I just managed to create a BZR branch for my bool and embroidery stitch LPEs. Both seem to work fine with the testing I did. The only issue is that the block order optimization, essentially a TSP problem, is either slow or gives not entirely satisfactory results, but it should be OK for not to complicated cases. Feedback on the code and functionality welcome! If you want some test files, please ping me. The branch is: https://code.launchpad.net/~msoegtrop/inkscape/embroidery

Am I missing something? This is showing as a 2 message thread to me. His initial post which started a new thread and your reply (and now it will have mine as well). I think your response was a mistake.

And > only one instance of Inksape will be used. Thats what I need :) This inkscape scripting using a verbs file would indeed be very useful. If you can separate out the yaml work from the verbs work, we could probably get the verbs work code reviewed and submitted more quickly.

If I understand this all correctly. (Unless the file is being read in via yaml... then I'm not sure because there's an aweful lot of code there to load yaml files if that's the case and we should probably use an external library)

Can someone else review and comment on this thread to back up what is understood here?
