  3. when I print my notes from Goodnotes 5, my letters are always cut out from the page. Why is this happening and how do I resolve it. It’s becoming highly annoying. I just don’t understand because my page is in A4 mode. ALSO HOW DO YOU CHANGE AN ENTIRE NOTEBOOK OF NOTES YOU'VE MADE ON GOODNOTES FROM STANDARD GOODNOTES PAPER TO A4 PAPER! Because I need to change my entire notebooks filled with work and it won’t allow me to change it normally. Please get back to me.
    Thank you

  4. I usually type my notes and code. So sometimes I try to highlight and copy things in The text box and I and it Keeps moving instead of letting highlight/copy. I suggest the option of pining the text box in place (with right click option) so they text box won’t move when I copy from my notes

  5. When I am inserting photos as a new page, I can only insert one photo at a time and could not insert more than one at a single instance.

    It saves lot of time for the users in case they want to insert screenshots of lessons they are going through online.

  6. Organization- That's the point where people sometimes prefer notability over good-notes. Saved file in folder like windows is a very old idea. It's so hard to get the note when It is necessary. Please try to make this feature as it is in notability.

  7. There is this button on the top left corner with four squares, where we could shift the pages around, flag pages, save them into the content page. But its stupid how we can't select multiple pages (or maybe its just that i cant figure out how). So if i want to select some ten pages and move them up, or delete them altogether, or export them, I can't.

    But overall, I really like Goodnotes and the feature I love the most about them, is them constantly listening to our feedbacks and improving their interface.

  8. I now use Goodnotes as a virtual whiteboard for my lecture and it's been great so far :) That would be great to have some overlay goodies like a clock (with different themes and size options) that floats above the presenter page.

  9. When I select text to change the style/font and I choose to hide the keyboard (to see more of my notebook), I lose the selected text. Please fix the bug.

  10. Hello, Can you add this goodnotes 4 function into goodnotes 5? I think it is faster than tapping on each folder to open them since I have so many subfolders. May be you could make it an optional function.
    Best regard.

  11. Right now if you want to export to multiple places like files and google drive you have to do it individually and name the file multiple times. It would be a lot easier if we could select multiple places when exporting.

  12. 스크롤 방향이 수평과 수직이 있는데,
    어느 문서는 수직, 어느 문서는 수평으로 개별설정이 가능하도록 해주시면
    더욱 편할 것 같아요.

  13. Just a better view of the file before it is exported, in a sense showing the borders and coloring, etc.
    Would definitely help with making sure the correct documents are being moved properly to where they need to be

  14. Hello!

    I absolutely love your app, it has completely changed the way I take notes and I love it!

    I do have honest suggestions that would greatly improve this application from the student's perspective.

    1. Toolbar Customizability; The ability to add more than one tools that you often use into the toolbar by dragging and dropping. For example, I really wish I could add more than 3 colours on the main toolbar. I switch between a lot of colours, and it is quite a pain to go into each individual tool section and choose it. Why not drag and drop your…

  15. Ladies and Gentlemen,

    an idea:

    • it would be very practical and helpful for students and teachers if the folder structure were structured like a kind of TAB structure (similar to the pages in GoodNotes)

    • so one would have a better overview

    See photo in appendix.

    Yours sincerely

  18. Please add creative ways to manage various folders, single file, pdf. Currently with so many subjects and folders and then subfolder looks a mess. there must be a concise and smart way to manage or tag documents.

  19. I have no idea where to tell them that the highlighter tool is not going behind the text anymore for me, I don't know if anybody else is having this same problem.

  20. This is an amazing feature notability has that is extremely welcome and needed in Goodnotes. The text function in goodnotes is flawed and if you don’t use the default 24 point, you are completely out of luck and text doesn’t line up with the spacings
