  4. Whenever i type a text i usually have some words in bold. And if i then go ahead and change the size of the entire typed text all of it turns bold and then i need to figure out again which words i had bold and which weren‘t. That is really annoying.

    1. I’d like to be able to select a bunch of different pages and change the template so I don’t have to do it to each individual page.

    2. When changing the template, the writing will stay the same size while the template size gets smaller making the contents go off the page where you can’t see what you’re selecting which seems like a defect. The contents of the page should maintain the same ratio of size in comparison to the new page.

    3. Someone posted something about being about to use the lasso tool on multiple pages so you can select a…

  6. when many tabs are opened, it becomes harder to maintain a good overview. I suggest the option of putting tabs of documents together in a group or stack, so that I can now work on other documents, but still can reopen the other tabs fast without having to close them before.
    For example: I‘m working on my physics homework and my answer and exercise sheets are opened. But also, I do have to take a look from time to time into the maths and physics theory notes, but not often, and still, they are using up a lot of tab…

  7. 目前软件可以圈选涂鸦,识别出文本,但有所不便。建议增加选项让用户能直接将圈选的文字转换成含有标准字体文本的文本框存在于文档中。
    此外还建议圈选区域不限于涂鸦,而是任意区域都可以圈选出截图供复制和拖拽到其它笔记或者应用中。

    I am a Chinese user, and the following text is generated by machine translation.

    Currently, software can circle doodles to recognize text, but with some inconvenience. It is suggested that an option be added to allow users to directly convert circled text into text boxes with standard font text to exist in the document.
    It is also suggested that the circled area is not limited to doodles, but any area can be circled to select screenshots for copying and dragging to other notes or applications.

  8. Often I write something indented and then decide to later to move it somewhere else aligned with the left. However, now it is shorter than the other lines, and so it would be handy if when lasso handwritten text you could also change the horizontal spread. Like how changing margins on a word document will redistribute the text to fit the new margins.

    I imagine this could be simple if the code can already detect and separate individual handwritten words. Otherwise, it would probably be too much work and maybe even require some ML.

  9. The text function needs improvement in my opinion. I would like it if there was an option for automatic bullets with an index instead of spacebar + - (see attached image)
    This would make the text more pleasing to write and look at.

    Furthermore, when I copy and paste text boxes e.g. the „bold“ font disappears and i have to turn words/sentences bold again. An improvement would make my work way faster.

    It‘s a small detail, but it seems that whenever i type the text and i want to edit the first word or add a word in front of…

  10. Maybe being able to click and see like a thumbnail of your „dashboard / homepage“ in order to switch between documents faster instead of returning and and pressing on the „back“ button couple of times to get out of your folders to the main page.

  11. There’s an extension on google chrome that allows you to add notes to highlighted text. Once the note is added, it’s hidden but you can access it again by clicking on the highlighted text or going to your dashboard.

  13. In GoodNotes 4 it was easy to rename a Favorite that has been assigned to a page. This is helpful to navigate through a large number of pages. In GN 5 I only get a list of thumbnails with page numbers, which is useless, unless I can figure out the content of the respective page from the thumbnail view.
    It cannot be too difficult to bring this feature back. The names that I have assigned in my old GN 4 documents are even shown now in GN 5! Since the day GN 5 came out, I waiting for this feature…

  14. What we would like is the page number like PDF documents. The page number in Roman numerals like i, ii, iii, iv, v, vii, should be support to display on the several starting pages, so that the following pages could have right page number matched with the real. I know that you just added a new feature about page number, but I don’t think it’s very useful. This request to support PDF page number display is more useful.

  18. When switching between tasks on my ipad a preview from GoodNotes with a page is shown which i deleted a long time ago. It would be better, if a preview is shown from the last active notebook page i used.

    Thanks for the report. We will need to investigate that. Could you please check the following:
    - if something similar happens in other apps
    - if you have multiple windows of GoodNotes open and if this is maybe an old window
    - if you can reproduce this problem reliably or only occasionally

    It would be great if you could send us the information to support@goodnotes.com so that we can investigate.
