Numerical digitize give a stack trace error on all releases after 3.18 [closed]

Question

I use the numerical digitize plugin often and it no longer functions in versions of QGIS released after 3.18. Please help or offer another option.

The error is as follows

2023-03-25T14:42:28     WARNING    Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/jasonowsley/.local/share/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles/default/python/plugins/numericalDigitize/numericalDigitize.py", line 194, in run
  self.__dlg.configureDialog(self.__layergeometryType, self.__layerwkbType, self.__isMultiType,
  File "/home/jasonowsley/.local/share/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles/default/python/plugins/numericalDigitize/addFeatureGUI.py", line 210, in configureDialog
  self.twPoints.setColumnWidth(i, self.twPoints.width()/self.twPoints.columnCount())
 TypeError: setColumnWidth(self, int, int): argument 2 has unexpected type 'float'
         

In addition, under the processing tab I see this:

I guess you found a bug. For a temporary solution, you can try the follows:

1. Go to the plugin folder (Settings > User Profiles > Open Active Profile Folder, and navigate to python > plugins > numericalDigitize)

2. Open addFeatureGUI.py. Find the line starting with self.twPoints.setColumnWidth(... (Line 210).

   

3. Change self.twPoints.width()/self.twPoints.columnCount() to int(self.twPoints.width()/self.twPoints.columnCount())

   

The problem is that a float value is passed to the setColumnWidth function. However, it has to be an integer value.

From Documentation:

setColumnWidth()
void QgsAttributeTableConfig::setColumnWidth(int column, int width)
