  1. We need to be able to set more colors than 3 to the colors squeeze color section.
    3 is just way to limited, this reminds me of the old Goodnotes where it took ages to get more than 3 colors in the top bar....

  2. 이미지 크기를 키우거나 줄일 때 상하 좌우로 동시에 크기가 변해서 주변의 다른 개체와 크기를 맞추기 힘들고, 개체가 놓일 정확한 위치를 잡기도 힘듭니다.
    이미지가 오른쪽과 아래쪽으로만 크기가 변한다면 훨씬 수월할 겁니다.

  4. In the iPad app, you can do either textboxes or you can choose to use the 'typing mode' where the text automatically aligns with the lines on the page. I would love to have this feature for the Windows version of the app!

  5. Apparently goodnotes 6 only provides 1 default font type in the "typing section",

    I suggest goodnotes to provide different text fonts in goodnotes, such as "Times New Roman", just like in the textbox feature.

    If this feature of providing different text font is also provided in the "typing section", this would be very useful, as some people are only used to a particular type of font.

  6. The newly added pencil tool in Goodnotes 6 offers an excellent writing and sketching experience, with smooth and intuitive strokes. It would be fantastic to have similar brush settings and handwriting functionality for the fountain pen, giving users the option to adjust it for more stable, precise writing. Currently, the fountain pen feels unstable, and I often find myself switching to Noteful for better handwriting. If the fountain pen could incorporate the same improvements seen in the pencil tool, it would make Goodnotes 6 a more versatile and complete tool for note-taking and sketching.

  7. Sticky Notes
    - Sticky notes should impose text size when resized
    - Text should be stuck on the sticky note and not laying on top of it
    - Allow sticky notes to go outside of a page
    - add a tethering point which can tether a specific point on the notebook, and a spot on the sticky note which will allow for it to be moved while also maintaining its connection to the text

  8. In Goodnotes 6 you can add a hyperlink to your document to take you to another page in your document/notebook. But you have to scroll to the page you want to click. I have notebook to tracking my books/personal library and for my financiance they are HUGE notebooks, like 1000+ pages. I don’t want to scroll through all of the pages. The scroll feature is nice, but I wish you could type the page number you want a hyperlink to. This would help a lot when making an index.

  12. Add a grouping feature, similar to that in PPT or other MS apps, so areas of handrwriting, text, or other elements can be grouped together and moved or resized together easily, without having to tediously select desired elements with the Lasso tool.
    This way, drawings or diagrams with multiple sections can be layered and easily adjusted.

  13. The collapsible sticky note feature is really great! However, when you open it again it opens as a comment and not as a sticky note. Would it be possible to have it open as a sticky note again, and maybe also have the choice on what it should look like (number, symbol, size) when collapsed. This could really help my notes taking!

  20. Please create an option to natively import speaker notes from powerpoint files into either adendums to each slide, separate slides that follow each slide the notes are associated with, or another method like a sticky note on each slide. It shouldn't be a massive hassle to implement, since Powerpoint files can be extracted by command line as zip files, and all the speaker notes are located in /ppt/notesSlides/notesSlide*.xml files, with each slide having its own notesSlide.xml file. The speaker notes are located in plaintext in these files in some basic OpenXML formatting that Microsoft came up with for office. Specifically,…
