Popup window in Inkscape extension

Question

I would like to build an Inkscape extension that only tells the user te total area of the selected item(s) - not modify them.

To do that I am looking for a way to create a popup feedback window in Inkscape that provides that info to the user. Right now I know that I create a window that looks like this:

but I would like to do something less ugly. Is that possible?

Answer 1

It's possible, but you'd need to use tkinter for that, which you can rely on for Inkscape users to be available.
