I’m running Inkscape as flatpak on Kubuntu 24.04 and I wanted to install.the Ink/Stitch extension, but somehow this doesn’t seem to work like it did on the apt/ppa version. I’ve tried the script install from inkstitch, and I’ve tried to manually copy the contents of the tar.xz to the extensions subfolder in home/.var/<inkscape> and restarting inkscape, but no luck so far. I was hoping someone here could give me some helpful tips to try? thanks!

    Go to Edit > Preferences > System and check where your User Extensions folder is, then extract the xz file to there

    Maybe you can also change the extensions folder in this configuration

      thanks I will check this out.

      edit:just extracting the tar.xz to the extensions folder and restarting inkscape-flatpak didn´t work. It was the correct folder, I tested it by installing another extension via the inkscape extensions dialog, and that popped up right there. However using the installer script from within the flatpak-cmd worked. Thanks for your help though!
