  4. Like a multi color pen with 4 slots. Add a 4th slot to the color options, so we can have the standard black and 3 other colors, or any 4 colors we want.

  5. I like the new iOS 7 theme in GoodNotes 4, but it has WAY too much glaring white space in the "bookshelf" view and in the menu bars. This is fine during the day for most people, but during night or in a dark room it can cause eye strain which inhibits productivity. For people like me with sensitive eyes, it'd be wonderful to have a "dark/night" theme that could be toggled on or off or even automatically activated based on ambient light. The music app "Ecoute" has a perfect example of this functionality. For me, this is the missing…

  6. It would be nice if I could reuse certain drawings/shapes that I've previously drawn, for example saving a certain graph setup (e.g. having axis labelled with distance vs. time) and then be able to choose from my saved shape menu and input it into the document I am working on now.

  9. Sometimes you have to copy text or an image from a pdf to another page, and it would be great to do this with the lasso tool. But then the lasso tool would need the auto shape option to grab an image without anything else and give it a rectangular shape.

  13. I like the toolbar at the bottom because it's easier to change between pen, eraser and highlighter like that. But, when the toolbar is set to bottom, the zoom window moves to the top of the screen, which is more or less unusable. Please keep the zoom window on the bottom or maybe put the full tool bar directly on the zoom window.

  15. It would be great if we could post videos inside of documents and be able to click/play them. That would truly make Goodnotes a multidimensional learning tool.

  16. Wenn man vom markieren ins schreiben übergeht, soll das Lineal Werkzeug deaktiviert werden, da man es sonst immer selber deaktivieren muss.
    Darüberhinaus wäre es hilfreich, ein duales System zu entwickeln, sodass man bei Bedarf die vorherige Seite klein oben im Eck hat, sodass man nicht immer zurückblättern muss, um die Aufgabenstellung zu lesen.

  19. Beside the Dropbox sync an OwnCloud would be cool. It gives more flexibility in using GoodNotes.
