Hi @Incauto,

Currently Canvas doesn't support onclick or hover events. It's something we are considering for the future and we have a public issue for it here:

> <https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/53243>

> Goal
> Canvas will benefit from having clickable parts of elements, which enable links to other parts of Kibana, and also external resources.
> Details
> Links...
