Dataview Inline Field Linker for Excalidraw

Site Feedback

This idea is inspired by Excalibrain.

Identify images associated with Excalidraw inline fields [key:: value], covering three scenarios:

  1. All text elements of the inline field are entirely above or below the image.
  2. The text box of the inline field partially overlaps/touches the image; this layout method is not recommended.
  3. Arrows connect the image to the inline field text box.

Dataview plugin and JavaScript support must be enabled.

Has crossed my mind as well, only I’ve not seen much development on Dataview ever since Obsidian Bases was released (even though, unfortunately bases is not really a viable substitute for Dataview). Building in integration with other plugins is always risky business, as plugins change and integrations break.
