This is similar to the also-unanswered question "Reference specifc canvas page through a variable?", and seems like something that would be a CORE feature for wireframe/flow documents.

I create a cover page of flows, with each box in the flow representing a wireframe in a canvas. I use the Jump to a Specific Canvas feature to let reviewers do just that, and put a shared layer header on each page that includes a button back to the flows.

However, I am constantly having to be sure that when I copy a flow box to link to a different wireframe, that I manually copy/paste or re-type the name of the wireframe in the box.

If the canvas name variable could be used on other canvasses, we'd have a pretty good simulation of an object symbol for each wireframe, for use in flows.

Apologize for the cross-post; since the other topic had no replies, I'm doing what I can to seek attention :-)
