  5. PLEASE REMOVE THE NEW (+) BUTTON FROM THE DASHBOARD. PLEASE REPLACE IT WITH A SIMPLE PLUS SIGN LOCATED TOP RIGHT. THERE IS NO REASON THE + SIGN SHOULD OCCUPY SO MUCH SPACE IN THE DASHBOARD.

  6. For the lasso tool. The blank space where the colour and size selection is should be toggles for the lasso tool. Like if I want to lasso just the handwriting and not the image/highlights or if I don't want to move textboxes. This would be really useful when adding side notes to annotations

  7. Good Day

    quite a few companies use goodnotes on the flight deck. We regularly need to rearrange the pages in a special manner. Right now you can use the overview but you only can move one page by time. It really helps if you can mark several pages and move it to a specific spot.
    That would be a super B add-on :)

  8. Add the option to make the selection tool rectangular to make it easier and faster to select things that do not overlap with any other elements. Would also make it easier to crop out things e.g. from a Powerpoint presentation.

    Something similiar to the selection tool from Notability

  9. Don't want to have to scroll all the way to a font I used somewhere else. A "recently used" section would be very helpful.

  11. I’d love to have a lab notebook mode where every page is automatically stamped with a date and time, and a locking button so that page can’t be written on after being locked, or can refer to that page by copying it, so as to meet lab notebook standards.

  12. When I select a new colour from the drop-down / multiple list and click out of the colour selector, that new colour is not automatically chosen to be the new pen colour.

  13. So, I personally think the app is getting better but, recently the feature that allowed us to draw straight lines, circles, arrows, graphs, etc have changed a little bit. It is less fluent and I can’t do 2 lines that will stick together automatically for example. Which I was able to do in the past. So it is impossible for me now to draw straight arrows or graphs which is quite frustrating because I used to use these features a lot. Now the lines are straight BUT no longer automatically horizontal or vertical you know ? You can maybe add…

  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.

  15. When importing pptx pages, scans or PDFs, the page size is exactly the import size. I would like the ability to resize the page to a template so we could add notes in the margins.

  16. I recently switched from Flexcil to Goodnotes and I love the experience so far. The only thing I am missing is the ability to have a floating document as a popup on top of another document. This makes taking notes and writing summaries of another document a lot more fun.

  19. Could GoodNotes only store recent accessed files for quick access and store unused files automatically on iCloud? It will be really useful for devices running out of storage.
    iCloud Drive on the iPadOS files app could do that.

  20. Email to GoodNotes is a pretty handy automation feature, but it is quite annoying to get all the files in the "Home" directory. It would be really nice if it was possible to add the option to use a relative path to the home directory like '/university/cs1' as subject of the mail.

    That way I could automatically import my scripts into GoodNotes and they would be there whenever I wanted to use them. Currently I have to search for the required script in the set of scripts forever, which costs me more time than downloading the scripts as soon as…
