Actually, it's included in 0.92 already: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/0.92.x/ files/head:/share/extensions/
Can read CSV files, and produce bar and pie charts.

The extension you mentioned earlier already does importing spreadsheets. What Illustrators has is a spreadsheet like interface in the UI, like a small table with cells that can be edited. This would be very handy, but as I wrote in my original post Inkscape doesn't seem to make this type of UI element easy to create (which is OK, but makes the creation of extension that mimics Illustrator more difficult).

Extensions are written in python, so it's possible, but you'll need
to
include packages that can read whatever speadsheet format you're interested in (maybe https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyexcel/ <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyexcel/> for xls and ods) On 01/07/2017 12:10 PM, Pierre Massat wrote: > Interesting, I didn't know about this extension. > I guess I could try and extend it a bit. > > No spreadsheet in the UI though, I wish there was a way to
