Label Designer module issue

0
Hi, sorry if this is wrong place to ask, I'm fairly new to Mendix. Partly as mendix training and partly as my personal free time project I'm wokring on a home-brew item management system. Lately I have been working on implementing a label printer (I've bought a cheap Niimbot D110 and I was able to create QR codes and with some tooling around I'm able to download QR codes, adjust them in the niimbot app, then print them and when I need to see what's inside say a box or a storage rack, I just scan the QR and the app shows what's inside. However, since this still requires tooling around in the niimboat app more than I would like to, I was thinking if the whole label could be prepared within mendix and then just printed as a regular image from the niimbot app (or even better, if it could be printed directly from within Mendix, but thats optional)Now to my actual issue: I've found this LABEL DESIGNER module on marketplace, by CAPE Groep B.V., I'm able to add this to my project (using studio 11.5.0) just fine, but when I try to open the snippet which is crucial for this module, or when I place it on a page in my core module, of the app, I just get THIS error: Has anyone used this module or face similar issue? The link to their support lands on a blank page. Thanks in advance.

The Label Designer module looks quite old, so the first thing I would check is whether it is officially compatible with Mendix Studio Pro 11.5.0. Many marketplace modules and custom widgets built for older Mendix versions can cause errors when opening snippets or pages in newer Studio Pro versions.

A few things that may help narrow down the issue:

  • Can you share the exact error message or screenshot? The root cause is often visible in the details.
  • Check the Marketplace page for supported Mendix versions and dependencies.
  • Verify whether the module requires additional widgets, Java actions, or marketplace modules that may not have been imported automatically.
  • Try opening the module in a project running the Mendix version recommended by the module author (if specified).

For your use case, generating QR-code labels directly from Mendix is definitely possible. Depending on your requirements, you may not even need the Label Designer module. You could generate a QR code image, place it in a custom page layout or document template, and export it as an image or PDF for printing.

If you can share the exact error message, someone may be able to identify whether it's a compatibility issue, a missing dependency, or a problem with the module itself.
