save as file to gcode not saving, error message

[maria pala]

Inkscape version 0.92.2
using HP Stream Windows

When I try to Save As file to g-code I receive a message that says " inkscape has received additional data from script executed. the script did not return an error but may indicate the results will not be implemented.....File 'unicorn py' line 23, in <module> from unicorn.context import GcodeContext ImportError: No module name context

Please help. I am trying to save files as G-code

- could you provide details about which operation you are executing?
- for example, are you using the menu item called Extensions->Gcodetools ?
  if so, which specific menu item are you using?

if you are using the gcodetools menu item, it might be worthwhile to ask a question on the original developer website at:
http://www.cnc-club.ru/gcodetools

HI Alvin,

Hi. I hope this helps. I import an image into Inkscape and then go to Save As and select MacroBoat.gcode to save to my desktop. That is when I get the error message. The file is not saving.

[Alvin Penner (apenner)]

as far as I can tell this is not part of the standard Inkscape installation.

could you indicate where you got this routine from, perhaps which website?

Hi Alvin,

I downloaded Inkscape .92.2 from Inkscape.org. When I opened the software I uploaded a svg image I got online. I set up my image to fit in the square and when I went to Save As I saved as Markerbot unicorn.gcode and then I got a display of the codes, selected OK, then I got the error message. I have attached images.

I have attached 3 images.

Hi,
okay, after some googling, it seems quite likely that you are probably using this software:
http://makerbot.wikidot.com/unicorn-output-for-inkscape

since this software was not created by Inkscape, it is not possible for us to support it here. I would suggest you contact the original developers at the makerbot website.

just came across this posting which states that the last supported version of Inkscape is 0.48.5.
