We have used Canvas for quite a long time to do many different things in our application and any time we try to upgrade from 1.5 to 2 functionality changes in too many areas without a workaround. With only one developer working on the plugin we have found it's difficult to get necessary changes so we always just revert back to 1.5. We don't want to be stuck on 1.5 forever and will probably be forced to upgrade at some point so instead of getting into the same situation with version 2 we are open to the idea of trying something else.

I was especially glad I had made the move recently when I had to change appointment minimum times from 15 mins to 10 mins. All I had to do was change a variable. Curious as to why you are moving away. If I were to move from Canvas to something else today, I might take a look at SVG as a possible alternative. At least for my application of Canvas, I think I could do it with SVG.
