Obsidian Canvas Walkthrough: Build with Me and Explore 3 I've Made

[@brendtevenden6389]

As a former teacher, I had a love-hate relationship with post-its. Loved using them, hated when they lost stickiness :-)

[@chrisjwilson]

No kidding. Like when they all start suddenly dropping to the floor. I never really thought about it before but i'd bet certain moister / heat conditions made it worse.

[@ProductivePM]

Great Job Chris, I really appreciate your approach and I am looking forward to using Canvas . . . All the best!

[@chrisjwilson]

Thanks, Greg. I wanted to show some actual uses for it rather than just a gut reaction / plain walkthrough. I’d love to hear what you find from it, I know some people who think it’s really overrated.

[@vandersteentim]

Thanks for this! Didnt knew this existed yet. Definitely going to use this for a family tree I wanted to make and some brainstorm sessions at work.

[@chrisjwilson]

Oh, family tree is clever! that’s just made me think about turning my people who influence me note into a canvas, that would be a great use for this!

Hey, i have only just found your channel but i am addicted,,your teaching style is perfect for me. Have you used the PodNotes plugin? I am in a mes with it and cannot for the life of me get it to work. The plug in o the top right just is not there for me, even though i have the plugin enabled and even added my podcasts. But it is still not there for me. Any help would be appreciated! Would you be open to doing a video on podcasts/ podnotes with obsidian?

Thanks! just caught the end of your talk.. have been using obsidian less but this helicopter view of things has possibilities 👍

[@chrisjwilson]

So far I'm seeing that using it for a sort of dashboard is a really great use or just dumping down ideas without knowing where you're going. I think it could be easier to start a new note or update existing notes but I'm sure it will improve with time.

[@moonlightandsunshine6875]

How would canvas show up in obsidian publish? thanks for sharing

[@chrisjwilson]

Currently, it doesn’t. I just double checked and unless I have some conflict from another plugin I think that’s the case. I don’t know if they will change that.

[@moonlightandsunshine6875]

@@chrisjwilson I tried the forum, nothing much there too. Though the new pdf viewer that just got release is quite nice. Hopefully some time in the future they will.

[@NathanConkey]

This might not be the correct forum to ask this, but... how can i get a Bible translation downloaded and split into verses? I want to do verse-by verse work, or is there some way of anchoring notes to a verse within a 'chapter' file? Thanks in advance! N.

[@chrisjwilson]

No problem Nathan. (Shame there’s no easy chat for channels, as far as I know) so are you looking for a bible in the vault with each verse as its own file? I remember seeing a way to do this but I need to check my notes to make sure i share the right resource.

[@NathanConkey]

@@chrisjwilson yes, brother, a Bible in the vault with each verse as its own file. If you could have a wee look, I'd be grateful.

[@chrisjwilson]

So I spent a bit of time and I can't find the original option I knew of. It had the files in plain markdown without any links. It was probably from hackathon.bible and the WEB bible, but I can't find it now. However, I did find this script that someone could use to split up a chapter divided set into a verse by verse set. github.com/joebuhlig/BibleGateway-to-Obsidian I haven't run it myself yet but I'm happy to help if you email me ([e-mail]) and provide a few more details.
