Support sending Dataview tasks to Canvas

[wenlzhang]

In the following request, one can send entire notes to Canvas, it would be great if one can achieve something similar for tasks. https://github.com/ivaneye/obsidian-files-cooker/issues/9

More specifically, one can achieve the following:

• Use Dataview to search for all desired tasks
• Add all desired tasks to Canvas
  • Obsidian now supports "Narrow to block". Therefore, this can be used to add a task of the current block.

It would be great if the above can also be support in DataviewJS.

The reason for having this request is that one can then arrange key tasks on Canvas like what Taskheat can do. https://eyen.fr/taskheat/

I had a discussion on the Obsidian Discord channel about sending block links to Canvas, which can be useful for this feature request: https://discord.com/channels/686053708261228577/1050087185602334833/1132967909791117453

Additional, one can use the plugin Copy Block Link to create IDs for the queried blocks.

update to v1.7.7 and try command 「Add dataview task to canvas...」or 「Add selection in current file to canvas ...」

Thanks for the update!

「Add dataview task to canvas...」or 「Add selection in current file to canvas ...」

These commands would send the task text to the specified Canvas file. Would it be possible to also support sending the block links of the queried tasks to the Canvas file?
