  1. This is just a nonsense to not be available.. all we need is the exact same thing as the pencil stroke thickness, but for the eraser..

    Simple as that, the same 3 quick eraser sizes/thickness, but with the ability to customize those sizes, plzzzz... its 2020 and its a "simple" feature

  2. In this app the lasso tool is almost flawless, exept when you use it to copy an image from one note to the other.. you have to take a screenshot and then drag it or copy and past, when you could just lasso it and all those option would appear as floating options and we wouldnt be moved to a new page with only the screenshot of the image. Think about it ;)

  3. Option to keep adding new pages to a file when we get current page half written, like instead of being always swiping up or manually adding a new page when we need it is a waste of time, with a simple option you could auto add new pages as getting to the bottom of the current page

  4. The tool bar is where most magic starts, so it should be something really simple, easy access and unintrusive but yours has too many items and takes valuable space from the screen, mainly if we are landscape. Could use the top bar wheres the document title to integrate the toolbar there and the title of the document would be somewhere else, again, notability does this perfectly
    And also plz, let us move the tool bar to the bottom without moving the entire top bar with it

  6. The design of the folders is pretty boring and i know you could make something way more modern and less techie.. those blue archivers are clearly not the best looking folder icons you can use, and while at it, plz let us change its colours so we can set different colours to different content of the folder.. would be easier to use, like university folders at green, stuff at blue, job at orange, etc...

  7. Also, making the highlighters brighter in dark paper? Like making it stay like when you are applying it? Or a bigger pen instead, to use that.

  8. Have you ever considered adding a dropper option to choose colours? I think it would make it easier to select the exact shade you want.
    Thank youuuu.

  10. Can you add a “merge” or “group” lines feature? It would make drawing shapes and ideas a whole lot easier. Similar to being able to group multiple lines or images on PowerPoint or google docs.

  12. As a mathematics student, I wish GoodNotes can implement a graphing function, because it is so difficult to draw a good sine wave.

  16. the ability to show the screen at true 100% or alternative 200/400/50% scales would make it much easier to review technical drawings.

  17. Create a default font, text size, and line spacing that will line up with a narrow and wide rules template. Or, add adjustable line spacing, space before paragraph, and space after paragraph options. It is obnoxious when text on a Cornell template or any other for that matter doesn’t match up with the lines.

  18. In imported PDF drawings generated in autoCAD standard SHX type text is surrounded by a thick black frame, destroying the appearance of the drawing.
    This does not happen in acrobat for iOS.

  19. I believe that you all should do an X-ray feature like kindle does that allows you to view only the highlighted portions of your document. This will allow a more condensed view of the things that you deemed most important in the document. This would be so helpful with students as it would allow them a much quicker way to create summary sheets of lectures by distilling only the things that they highlighted ie. what they found most important.

  20. I write with lined paper, but would like to remove the lines afterwards. It's just not feasible to do this at present, having to change the template of every page one by one.
