The behavior of “Open in Canvas” is different between the Data Explorer search results and the Search search results.
I am trying to use two screens with an open browser window on each screen (one screen for searching, and one for viewing my canvas).
When I select an item in Data Explorer, I get an image of a Scroll with the caption “Open in Industrial Canvas”. When I select the scroll, I have the option to “Choose Canvas” or select an open canvas (in my screenshot it is JP - Testing Canvas May 1). (See screenshot Data Explorer). When I choose my existing Canvas, the item is added to my open Canvas, and the canvas refreshes instantly.
When I select an item in Search, I have three dots next to the black icon with the text “Open”. When I select the three dots, I have the option to “Open in Canvas”. (See screenshot Search). When I select that option, a new tab opens, where I need to choose between existing canvas and new canvas. If I choose existing canvas and select my open canvas, the item is added to the existing canvas in this new tab. The canvas that I had open in a second window on my other screen does not refresh.
The Data Explorer behavior is much more convenient. Can this functionality be added to Search please?
Thanks
