1. Multiline text fields: appearance="multiline"
   • I could not figure out how to set the height to something else than one row ?
2. type "description"
   • A param of type description is replaced by label. The old format (still supported) should be put in another section.
3. translatable="no"
   • Have to be done, but I'm not certain how it works. In some cases, the translatable element is the tag value and in other, it's an attribute.
4. implements-custom-gui
   • Never used it, what is it ?

2. Right! Sorry about the wrong info.
3. I don't know any more than what is written here: https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Updating_your_Extension_for_1.0#Changes_to_parameter_definitions - ask ede123 / Patrick if there's anything else that you need to know.
4. See https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Release_notes/1.0#Extension_dialogs (last item)

For (1) what I dont get is how to set the height to a minumum of more than one line ? Does it has to be done by other (side) elements and cover the extra left automatically ? Is there other way? For (4), there's no reference to custom-gui? KBenoit (talk) 15:31, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
