Trouble exporting to KiCad

I'm encountering the following error using windows, inkscape v1.0.1, svg2shenzhen 0.2.18.7

I also encountered this, resolved it by upgrading from Inkscape 0.91 to 1.01

I am encountering this issue too, and already using inkscape 1.0.1. Using the latest checkout of svg2shenzen (commit hash 42378e5 )

Well... that was easy. I am using the source distribution, so bitmap2component is not built for my platform. Build it with src/build.sh and copy the relevant file to the inkscape plugin location (e.g. cp src/bitmap2component inkscape/svg2shenzen/bitmap2component_linux64, see .travis.yml for other platforms). This requires installing the dependencies (e.g. potrace).

Or, easier, download the binary distribution as specified in the README

I did all the process of copying and pasting three files on Inkscape. After restarting Inkscape, under Extensions drop down menu, I am getting svg2shenzen 0.2.18.7 option. But under this option 1.Prepare document 2.Export to kicad remains disabled. Only About option is active and on clicking on it, an About window opens up. I am using Inkscape verion 1.0.1(1.0.1+r74). Please help me out.

I am having an issue with exporting to kicad as well. I am using 2.18.7 and inkscape 1.0.2. When I hit Apply, nothing happens. No Kicad project or module is made.

Can you share your file?

[HackModBrew]

Absolutely! I appreciate you reaching out to help. I found a mistake I made so tomorrow I will try it again and if it works I will let you know and update my github comment to what I did wrong. If it still doesn't work I will send my files to have you look at it. Thanks, Jon

Export to KiCad does not work. There is no file in the registered folder D:\KiCad. I'm using Windows, inkscape v1.0.2 and svg2shenzhen 0.2.18.7. I have activated "Debug", but cannot find a debug report file.
