I've used canvas quite a bit since it was release in Obsidian. It's good, not great, but the simplicity of the file type opens up a lot of opportunities to build on top of it.
- big_toast 6mo agoIt took me a while to start using canvases. But now I think they should be a much more common UI pattern. They really shine on large (40"+ non-retina 4k) screens. The simplicity at launch made me feel more confident in using them at all. I don't use most of the other obsidian features/plugins.
- kepano 6mo agoWhat would make it great in your eyes?
- bnj 6mo agoNot OP, but I use canvas all the time (Thank you!) in preference to something like Miro because I really value the open format and being able to keep the file. Something that really holds me back is the inability to use different shapes for the nodes - a use case for me is creating flow charts and process diagrams, so being unable to use the standard shapes for those is a challenge. Still the best option though!
- kepano 6mo agoYeah I agree! In the meantime Advanced Canvas plugin might help: https://github.com/Developer-Mike/obsidian-advanced-canvas https://github.com/Developer-Mike/obsidian-advanced-canvas
