Lack of snapping and reference points when using shapes
Hi everyone,
I’d like to report a limitation I’ve noticed when working with shapes in Goodnotes and ask if others feel the same.When drawing or editing shapes such as circles, squares, and lines, there is currently no snapping or anchoring system. This makes it difficult to align shapes precisely or connect them to each other.
In particular:
There are no visible reference points (such as center points, midpoints, or edge anchors).
It’s hard to find the exact center of a circle or square.
Aligning shapes or connecting lines to other shapes requires a lot of manual adjustment and is…

Ink drawn on top of imported elements jump behind when you try to
Subject: Ink layer jumps behind imported graph elements when selected in GoodNotes 7
Description:
When using GoodNotes 7 (currently on version 7.0.8), any ink drawn on top of an imported image or element (for example, a coordinate-grid or graph) behaves incorrectly after being selected.Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert an image or element (such as a coordinate grid) onto the page.
2. Send the image to the back.
3. Draw a parabola or any ink stroke on top of the grid using the Pen tool (optionally with Shape Recognition enabled).
4. After the ink snaps into shape, tap it once…2 votes -
Making site more accessible
Hello, I really enjoy your site. I work at a community college with students with disabilities and I refer students often. I noticed when I ran your site through wave.webaim.org and there were a few areas that could be easily fixed. I am requesting that you use the site to improve the accessibility.

Fix outlines
The outlines tab is not as helpful as it once was. Whenever I use an imported pdf (usually converted from a powerpoint or word document), the outline is filled with text from every single slide, making it hard to find ANYTHING. I can unselect 'Show pdf outline', but the default view is the cluttered, unhelpful mess.
Then, when I add my own outlines, they are in haphazard order. Please see the attached images. I have created these outlines in page order, but they seem to appear in a random order. Why??!
Please make the outlines feature more functional by making…

Manually set pen rotation
An option to manually set the rotation of fountain pen tip. When you turn off the recognize pen rotation option, which is a nice feature, it sets in an oblique angle. It would be nice to be able to manually rotate the pen tip and set it whichever angle you want it.

Einfaches kopieren von Wörtern
Gerade ist es so, dass wenn ich eine PDF eingefügt habe ich nur sehr umständlich
einzelne Wörter markieren kann um diese dann z.B. zu kopieren.Ich muss erst das Textfeld erstellen Symbol auswählen
Dann kurz die linke Maustaste gedrückt halten und kann dann erst markieren.
Und wenn ich das Wort dann markiert habe funktioniert die Tastenkombination Str + C nur bedingt.Und außerdem ist es sehr schwer die richtige Zeit zum Mauszeiger bewegen zu finden da oft einfach ein Textfeld erstellt wird oder garnicht markiert.
(Keine Ahnung wieso das so kompliziert ist)Kann ich nicht einfach wie in einer PDF…

Toolbar Default Pen Setting
"Currently, Goodnotes does not have a specific feature that automatically sets the toolbar to start on the Pen tool when switching between files. The Pen tool is the first tool in the Handwriting Toolbar and can be selected manually, but the app does not remember or default to the Pen tool automatically upon file switching," Goodnotes Support.
It would be great if a toolbar customization update allowed you to make the pen feature the default tool when switching between documents instead of the lasso.

Toggle that allows a Shaded Shape Without Outline
Please bring back the ability to erase the outline while keeping the shaded fill after using the “hold to perfect shape” feature. It was super useful for creating clean shaded boxes and diagrams. A toggle to separate fill and outline would be amazing!

Add a way to delete downloaded whiteboard templates from marketplace
You can repeatedly download whiteboard templates for some reason which caused my “imported from marketplace” section to be spammed with the same few templates. Would be great to have a way to delete them

Floating sticky notes in margins
l want to request sticky notes or comments that can be in the margins or in the sidebar, independent of being linked to a single page. Imagine having a sticky note on your desk with reminders or instructions that you put next to your notebook. in this particular context, I want to have the instructions for an assignment posted outside of the page that I can refer to at any point to make sure I’m on the right track.

Pause / Play animated gifs
The ability to add animated gifs is great, but they just loop continuously. It would be nice to be able to click them to pause or play them. I'm using good notes to record some whiteboard-style tech how-to videos. I'm doing animations in procreate dreams and would like to drop those into a good notes whiteboard. I then use iOS screen record to record the whiteboard session.

Please make the vertical scrolling smoother.
It is clanky and feels like it has friction for every page. It really kills the experience.
Also it would be a lot better if you could make the pages continuous when scrolling vertically like in Notability.1 vote -
Font dropdown window
Currently, choosing a font is time-consuming, not efficient. There are so many steps to choose the font I need. The recent update made it worse.
Now, a tiny window pops up with the default chosen (never the one I need). I then select "Custom Fonts" and a larger window pops up. I go find say, Bodoni. Change my font. But I find I don't like that font. I have to highlight the word or words, the small window pops up again, I choose Custom Fonts again, then have to find another font from the beginning. I'd like it to default…

Rotate draw and hold/more nuanced lasso tool
Hi GoodNotes team,
I use GoodNotes heavily for planning and note-taking, and I’ve noticed a frustrating inconsistency with shapes.
When I draw an oval using the Pen tool with “draw & hold” (auto-shape), it sometimes snaps into place at an angle. However, when I select it, there’s no rotate handle or rotate option—so I can’t straighten it without deleting and redrawing.
In contrast, an oval created with the Shape tool does include a rotate handle. This results in two shapes that look identical but behave very differently, which can be confusing during fast daily use.

Connect playback to what was drawn
You should be able to click a recording, and it take you the page where it was made, and say you went over different pages while make the recording and drew things on the different pages, as the recording is going, it should take you to those pages
Inversely, if you drew something while making a recording, there should be a view where you can easily see what things you drew during a a recording vs just drew normally
ALSO, crucially:
I might be reading a several hundred page book, and I have my thoughts on a certain paragraph that…1 vote -
Find and replace text
For long text documents, it would be helpful to have a find and replace option. I have a document, for example, that has 124 instances of the same name that needs to be changed. Right now, I can only do it manually in Goodnotes 6.

Lock Lines in Shapes & Pen Tool/Pen Tool + Handwriting//Element Stickers
The new update with the lock feature for images and text is great. However, being able lock elements/stickers, handwriting from pen tool, and lines from both pen and shape tool is necessary for the lock feature to make a real difference in the functionality of the app.
