  1. Ich hätte gerne die Möglichkeit, Ordner für eine bessere Übersichtlichkeit einzufärben. Und auch die einzelnen Registerkarten würde ich gerne einfärben können, um schneller etwas zu finden.

  2. I hate having to manually change to eraser each time I make a mistake. I think Nebo has this function.

  3. I would love to see a ruler where you can draw precisely.
    And one should be able to see the radius of the circle while drawing.
    Or see how longe an edge of a form is, angle etc.

  7. If you press return it also deletes content from pages you are not at the moment, sometimes you tap it once or twice too often, just to find out later that you accidentally deleted stuff from the previous page.

  9. It would be nice you would have a folder symbol which imitates a real folder, and you could design it, now everything looks very technical.

  11. When I have my lecture slides open and I create a snapshot from a picture, I always have to - share - copy to clipboard - paste. This is complicated and feels unnatural. Nice would be a simple copy and paste.

  12. After we got “Draw and Hold” mode for pencils to draw perfect shapes, putting an eraser with “Erase Entire Stroke” in the middle of the circle makes the circle be erased. This is quite uncomfortable when I have to edit inside the circle. I wish the circle would be erased only when the eraser touches the boundary.

  16. It would be really helpful if one could "unlock" a page and let it overlap another page above it.
    When doing exercises I often get an exercise sheet and create a new page below for solving. It would be pretty cool if the new page could overlap the exercise sheet so I always see the exercise I am working on above it.

    Thanks!

  17. After turning on Automatic synchronisation of my Goodnotes files to Dropbox, I discovered that this feature takes over an enormous amount of the HD memory, in fact if left it alone it will take over all your HD. I discovered this when I ran out of memory in my HD and discovered that the Dropbox cache was 500GB. It took me some time to figure out why I had lost this enormous amount of memory. After erasing the dropbox cache, it immediately started filling up again and in one day it was already 100GB large! At the moment it copies…

  18. Goodnotes 5 syncs all documents to the iCloud. It would be great if the user good choose not to sync certain files and folders.

    Thank you very much!

  19. The ability to select the number of flashcards to be shown during a session, that way you can slowly increase the number of cards you study each time. For example, I can choose to study 5, 10, or 20 cards out of 40 flashcards. Then once those are learned, I can add more by increasing the amount of cards.

  20. Flashcards are a great way to learn.
    But when studying topics that are more complicated than vocabulary it would be very helpful to be able to write down the answer before checking if it was correct. (For example mathematical derivations). Writing the answer also helps with learning.

    My idea is that the flashcard screen shows two flashcards: One with the question (like it already does) and one, that is blank. You can write down your answer in the blank flashcard using the Apple Pencil. When clicking the flashcard with the question it flips over and shows the correct answer, so…
