Gcodetools extensions - Help tabs not so helpful

Migrated from: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1674657

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape 1.0 beta2
  • Extensions menu > Gcodetools > any and all of them
  • look at the Help tab

What happened?

The Help tabs are all identical.

What should have happened?

The Help tab should have info specific to each dialog. And there are plenty of cryptic settings for every single one of these dialogs, for which users might be consulting the Help tabs.

Or else there should be only one Help item for all the dialogs. Maybe a Help dialog would be appropriate, and then each Help tab could be eliminated?

Or maybe there could be some way to combine all those dialogs into one large one? Then it could have an appropriate single Help tab?

Inkscape Version and Operating System:

  • Inkscape Version: 1.0beta2 (1c3732b, 2019-12-09)
  • Operating System: Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit

Thanks!
