By the error you get, I think the v2.3.3 release I just uploaded to Github might fix the problem (Fix for #29).

Follow the instructions to install from Github in the manual: https://parametrictext.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html
Make sure to uninstall any installation from the app store first.

Hi Thomas, Im still having an intervalidationerror:res

Your addin works with a simple test file but not on the intended drawing.
On my test drawing I can even set the comment to '' so that no text is printed, and restore text with font size etc preserved when a printable string is sent to the .comment

Separately.
this is a free addin, it is valuable and you should be charging for it
My application is to selectively emboss a 3D part, and convey the text to the printer as a second color.

I guess the next bug is the same as reported in #61 ?

Regarding charging: Maybe if I recreate a much more user friendly add-in. Also, I have never hit more Fusion bugs than when making this add-in. If offering an add-in for sale, I would like to be able to address user problems - and that is problematic when Fusion is the source of half of them.
