Canvas is invaluable for sketching out ideas quickly into cards, and linking them together, but then have to be manually moved to a note or notes with multiple clicks per individual card. It would be super useful if cards could be selected, (maybe first making into a group if that helps) and the contents copied and pasted to an existing note, or converted into a new note.
I can’t find any workarounds other than manually copy pasting the contents of each card, but i find the canvas a huge help for adhd and use multiple canvases to go up and down higher levels & then map of content notes & linked notes to go into the more finder detail orientated resolutions. So this would be a huge help if its possible.
Absolutely - seeing that the tons of cards I added to a canvas didn’t turn into notes really is a cramp. Would love it if they were created as .md notes like the rest of my notes!
Today can be done with Addon Canvas2Document
It converts a whole canvas to a single md-Note. Besides it transfers all cards to single note-files, from which the target document is built. You may find the single note files in the dir _canvas2doc-data next to your canvas.
For only a subset of nodes: you may copy the relevant node group to a new canvas and convert that.
