Comment 2 for bug 494472

Hi,
Thanks for the prompt reply.
I'm using version 0.47 on XP professional (5.1, build 2600).

I imported an autocad dxf file into inkscape.
Ungrouped the image and deleted some unwanted lines.
Locked the original layer.
Added another layer.
Added leader lines and text to this new layer.
Clicked on the microsoft outlook icon on my quick launch toolbar.
Microsoft outlook began loading.
As outlook opened a python window opened (The window was blank apart from a
flashing cursor in the upper left of the window).
I closed oulook using the red cross in the upper right corner.
The python window closed and the error dialog opened with the Uniconvertor
error reported earlier.
I tried to copy the text from the dialog without success and eventually
closed.
I received an unexpected error message and inkscape closed.

I have since tried to repeat this error and have found that inkscape seems
ok if I save the file I am working on before opening another program. If I
don't save the file the python window opens over the top of the program I am
opening and locks inkscape. I have not seen the original error message
again, inkscape simply locks and has to be terminated with Ctrl, Alt, Del.
Hope this helps in some way.
Karl

1) Could you please provide information about your Inkscape and OS version?
2) Could you please add a 'steps to reproduce' list containing information
about what you where doing when the python message popped up? Where you
saving as WMF or SK1 or PLT file? or copying some text in Inkscape? or using
a different extension with 'Live Preview' toggled on?
3) <Opened and closed outlook> - could you clarify on that too please, I
don't understand what you mean.

A message appeared to say that the Uniconvertor failed. Unfortunately it

to copy and paste it put another error message up to say that unexpected
