QR Code is integrated in LO from 6.4.0. For example on Writer, you can generate one from: - Insert menu - Object - QR Code... Could you give it a try? About the extension itself, what's the name of it? You could uninstall the extension, rename your LO directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#GNU.2FLinux) and give a new try.
aaah, ok. Well hidden ;-) I tried the QR-Code function as you described. It works! :-) I will uninstall the QR-Extension. https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/barcode/1.3.5.0
Alfredo: thank you for your feedback. Michael: taking a look at https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/barcode, I see compatibily for LO 3.4 and 3.5 but nothing for more recent LO versions. Whom to ping to remove this extension from tdf website? Indeed, I would have put NOTOURBUG but the extension is on LO website.
Sorry Michael, I had put a comment for you in my previous comment but had forgotten to put you in cc. Any thoughts?
