New Plugin: Canvas Links, build link between file and canvas by "embed"

Thanks for adding this plugin! It’s nearly exactly what I’m looking for. You are able to show a view of what notes the canvas contains and therefore which [[Links]] are there. Is there any way you can actually link to the documents in the canvas? Either by adding text to the notes or creating a ‘glossary’ style note in the canvas that links to all new notes created.

WHY
Canvas is a great place to start brainstorming and make new connections. But visual connections in the canvas are not actual links and so don’t show up in graph view.

HOW
Every canvas connection between notes should be an Obsidian [[link]]. For example, if there was an arrow from Note A to Note B there should be a corresponding outbound link.

WHAT
By adding footer style links to the bottom of notes. Alternatively, a ‘glossary note’ within the canvas that is named with the canvas name and has the sole job of linking to every note created in the canvas would achieve some of the means.

I’m new to this forum so hopefully this makes sense — let me know if I made any blunders!
