When objects are selected the script tries to fill their bounding boxes with the pattern.

That does not work correctly in Inkscape 1.2.2.

Your script converts the units using self.svg.unittouu().
However, that does not seem to be working as intended (anymore).

I am not knowledgeable with Inkscape extension programming but removing the conversion seems to work most of the time:

                 bbox = elem.bounding_box()
-                self.options.width = self.svg.unittouu(bbox.width)

+                self.options.height = bbox.height
+                draw_one(bbox.x.minimum, bbox.y.minimum)

However, sometimes the pattern is drawn out of bounds. I am not sure if this is another problem due to the newer versions of Inkscape/inkex or a known problem.
See attached screenshot:

When using the extension in inkscape 1.1, I get this message:

living_hinge.py:152: DeprecationWarning: inkex.deprecated.description -> elem.desc = value
link.description("%s hinge %s" % (self.name, self.parameter_text()))

Currently the swatch border is rendered before the pattern, which can be problematic wrt cut order.

Better to have the pattern (and hole) rendered prior to the outline/border.

Inkscape 1.1.1 (3bf5ae0d25, 2021-09-20)

Any help out here is highly apreciated

Hi, to use with Inkscape 1.3 you must edit the living_hinge.inx file and remove the line "inkex.py" otherwise you get an error finding inkex.py file and a greyed out useless entry in the menu.
