Mind Map export does not show text in links between nodes

[Marmotsts]

Description

When exporting a Mind Map type note (NOT a Mermaid Diagram), the text in the links (red arrows between nodes) is not rendered. The text appears in the Trillium UI and I'm able to modify it, but when I try to use the export to svg or png buttons the resulting images do not have the link text visible.

See attachments for an example:

Hi @Marmotsts! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the Trilium team.

This is a known limitation: Trilium's Mind Map export uses the MindElixir library's exportSvg() method, and Trilium does not modify or extend the export output. If link text is missing from exported SVG/PNG images, it's due to how MindElixir generates the SVG, not Trilium itself. The Trilium codebase and documentation confirm this behavior, and there are no recent changes or workarounds in Trilium addressing this issue. MindElixir is capable of exporting link text in some cases, so this may be a bug or limitation in the library or how the data is structured for export in certain scenarios. Issues with MindElixir's export should be reported upstream to the MindElixir project for resolution.

It seems to be an upstream issue. I've reported it to them, we can follow the status there: SSShooter/mind-elixir-core#359
