Canvas: large card cannot be edited on mobile

Steps to reproduce

Create a large card vertically in Canva, it doesn’t need to be filled with text.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

I just deactivated plugins and themes

Expected result

Editing a note

Actual result

It is not possible to edit the note. When you press on an area of the note or an empty area, the menu sometimes doesn’t open. It is also not possible to swipe with the mouse if the note is selected.

Other users are experiencing the same bug. I’ve posted a video on Reddit, since I can’t upload videos to the forum

Is anyone able to edit large cards (Android)? I can only edit the small ones. : r/ObsidianMD (reddit.com)

Thanks this is a known issue.

Back in 2023, you (WhiteNoise) said this would be fixed in v1.4.4. We’re on v1.7.7 at the time of posting this reply. Is there anyone working on this? Hell, can I work on this?

Ok this is a bit more complicated that this.
Basically, it’s impossible to edit a card if its zoomed in size/edit size is not enough to reveal/uncover the text.

Will be fixed 1.8.3
