Title:
Inkscape UI can pass invalid values to Datamatrix extension
Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool:

Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Binary package hint: inkscape
This bug in Inkscape's handling of the Datamatrix extension was
reported in Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=618835
* Go to Extensions->Render->Barcode - Datamatrix
* Select Rows = 19, Cols = 10, Square Size / px = 4
* Click "Apply"
>> The extension raises an error
The main problem here is that Inkscape uses spin-buttons in the
extension dialog, which invite the user to scroll through any
combination of row/col values. However, the extension itself only
accepts a finite set of combinations... in other words, the user can
very easily select an invalid input for the script. Combining this
with "Live preview" leads to bad results!
It might be better (if a bit ugly) to have a drop-down list containing
only the valid row/col combinations.
