  1. GoogleDrive, DropBox and OneDrive are available, but FTP/SFTP for share in own systems (for business or friends) isnˋt available.
    I think this can be useful for other tools.

  3. 你们在最新版本中去掉了这个选项,无法隐藏状态栏。本来工具栏面积就很大,现在不能隐藏状态栏,导致文档显示面积进一步被压缩。不要为了适配iPados15的分屏键,就让整个软件变得难用。

  4. When buying paper notebooks the most common page designs are:

    • lines
    • grid SIZE: medium
    • grid SIZE: small

    Please make a template for a small grids, as they are extremely helpful for STEM students. Could even be used by artists by using the template for their creations and later on changing the template t blank.

  5. When searching on iphone spotlight search, it would be good if a small preview image of the document would show. Notability has this feature so it shouldn’t be hard I think

  6. Hey! I know the app allow us to choose new colours and add them to a big pallete, but instead of thtat, it would be even great if we could create more than one pallete for different documents. Like this...

  7. It feels like the macOS app is unfinished and has performance problem, like lag, slow, sync problems etc. This makes the user experience of macOS app very bad.

  8. This is more of a bug report than a feature request, and it concerns the rotation of scanned documents from my iPad's camera.

    When importing a scan into GN using GN's own "Scan Documents" feature, the user is permitted to change the rotation, crop, and color scheme (b&w, color, etc) of the scan. This happens after the picture is taken with the camera. I frequently have to rotate a page 90 degrees to correct the text direction, but no matter what rotation I chose, GN imports it to a notebook with the original orientation. Very often, this creates a mismatch…

  10. It would be great to have the option to use a sidebar like the one we already have in the Mac version also on the iPad. Especially on large iPads this would be an easy, fast, convenient and clear way of navigating around larger documents.

  12. Would you be able to create a “touch” feature icon so that it supports hotlinks on pdf?

    I have hotlinks in my content page of my pdf to navigate to the correct pages, one click and i jump straight to the page instead of flipping through 30 pages.

  14. When writing notes with Zoom Window, it would be comfortable to have the color picker on the grey line of the zoom window, next to the indentation keys. This way when writing, we can quickly pick our colors instead of having to move our pencil all the way to the top of the screen. When I'm writing definitions, after every term I have to change color and it is time consuming and tiring to go so far away. It would be way more efficient and convenient to have the color picker appear closer to the zoom window for faster access.

  15. Elements Improvement Suggestion

    1) It is often that user import a whole page of stickers that haven't been 'cut' individually. An option to be able to "edit" elements and crop them out (rectangle/freehand) would be helpful so we can import a whole page of uncut PNG rather than having to cut them one by one to import into Elements.

    2) When selecting elements, elements are automatically placed in the middle of the page, because elements can be rather small, it sometimes gets muddled with other stickers/elements making it difficult to select and move it. I would like to suggest the…

  16. It would be nice to be able to change the thickness of the pencils, especially the highlighter to the size that you want and that is not limited.

  17. Since latest update the Camera shortcut is hidden in the IMAGE-section and not as a Stand-Alone Icon between IMAGE and TEXT.

    We need to add a lot of photos to the Documents and now the workflow gets really disturbed as you always have to tap twice instead of 1.

    please simply bring the Icon Shortcut back, thanks in advance!!!

    Best re gards,
    Stephan

  18. I think there should be more variety allowed when it comes to the eraser size. We shouldn't only have 3 sizes to choose from. I would prefer a slider, like that of the pen and highlighter tools, which allows us to get more specific sizes.

  19. Pin notes in a bar like tabs in browser. You won't close them by mistyping.

    I have "theese" notes that I don't need to close like: to-do list or my everyday notebook with some notes. It will be better to have options for pin important notes in the bar

  20. It would be nice if I could upload, say, a text document with one word or sentence on each line, and have Goodnotes automatically produce a deck of flashcards with blank space for the question and each line of text as the answer. (Or a two-column spreadsheet with one column of question text and one column of answer text.)
