Whiteboard / Canvas / Drawing

The ability to connect multiple entities on a whiteboard and add free text. The whiteboard itself is also an entity and has it's own database. A good implementation is Heptabase.

Thanks for voting on this ticket.
We just released an updated "What's next" article. You can read it here: https://capacities.io/roadmap/whats-next
We currently don't have whiteboards on our roadmap. Nevertheless, we do not exclude that this can change. We still encourage you to vote on this ticket to get a better idea of the importance to users and to stay updated on the topic.

Is there any update on this ever happening? It's one of the most voted features so I'm surprised to still not see it on the roadmap at all. If capacities could do a canvas board like in Scrintal it'd be perfect!

The Excalidraw drawing tool (excalidraw.com) is a wonderful open source drawing tool that could be implemented. This was done in Obsidian as a plugin and it works great.

Capacities is the best note-taking app for me, especially because of its object-based approach, which aligns with my natural thinking. The search functionality and beautifully designed features make it easy to find notes. However, one major drawback is the lack of a whiteboard/canvas/drawing feature. I believe that for an app to be the ultimate thinking and note-taking tool, it should offer such a feature.

This is the last feature I miss in Capacities that, if implemented, would make me fully switch from all apps and stay forever.
After having tried whiteboard note-taking apps I've realized that I very often need this in my thinking and studying process before I can create a normal text note. I can no longer go without this.
I really love all the functions that Heptabase's whiteboard has. What would be a game changer is also adding a drawing tool and making it possible to write on iPad with apple pencil

I also vote for a canvas. It needn't be a complex thingy like Excalidraw, just a straight and simple canvas which visually let us plot relations of objects.
In my opinion, while Capacities has lots(!) of strengths, the lack of visualization features is its weakest aspect.

Agreed - for many there is no substitute for sketching out the problem and the positions of it's relative components
