  3. Being able to move and edit documents within the app will greatly enhance the functionality and productivity.

    The Lasso Tool should be able to edit imported documents like it is with notes. This is also applicable to the text box function.

    Currently, editing imported documents in GoodNotes feels like using Snapchat. We should be able to move and edit the text as we like.

    I strongly believe this will make GoodNotes the best notes app out there and choosing it instead of Notability would become a no brainier.

  4. Add schedule that can link my document to certain days like for example in Sunday I want to review my pharmacology notes and to complete another note, when I tap on the name of the note that is written on the schedule it takes me directly to the note page.

  5. Please add the ability to set margins on both sides of handwriting paper. The auto advance works great, but since you cannot set the margin on the right side of the paper, the handwriting often goes right to the edge of the paper before the auto-return takes you to the next line.

  6. It would be great if we could fill the shapes that we create with more unique fills. Not only will this make the process more creative but it would also make our visuals more understandable.

  7. I know a lot of snapping grid request have been proposed but I wanted to propose something more specific.

    One of the feature that I love with GoodNotes is the ability to create our own templates with precise format. I attached a file as an example.

    I created a lot of different templates with grids on them. But depending of the templates the size and the position of the grid differ.

    So what could be great is to have the ability to create snapping grid with :

    • custom colors;
    • toggle hide/show (hiding would be useful for not overlaying existing grid…

  8. it will be ok to import a picture ( for example a nautical compass), filtering white so it can be transparent ( already possible now ) and make an area impenetrable so that we can draw straight lines during lessons.

  9. If you open a note or a folder from your favorites when you close the note or folder it goes back to your favorites. Can you make it so it goes to the folder that the note or folder was in?

  10. 我有一個這樣的想法,在整個頁面中提供內置的一個個小頁面。這些小頁面可以通過添加的按鈕打開,但這又不同與超鏈接。這樣做的好處是可以不影響整個頁面佈局的前提下使筆記更一目瞭然。希望你們能採納我的這個想法,期待您的回復。
    I have an idea to provide built-in small pages in the entire page. These small pages can be opened by adding buttons, but this is different from hyperlinks. The advantage of this is that the notes can be more clear without affecting the layout of the entire page. I hope you can adopt this idea and look forward to your reply.

    The original content of this content is Chinese, and only the original text can express the most accurate meaning.

  11. I use to have 3 or 4 notebook opened (as tabs), on the iPad when we open Goodnotes we are on the last state (with notebooks already opened), on the Mac each time I open Goodnotes I start with a blank stage, on folder page and nothing opened.

  12. I read the Support comment:
    "The latest update GoodNotes 5.5 is now available on the App Store. While scrolling through your document, you can now see the current page number and the total number of pages in this document. If you don’t like to see the page numbers, you can disable it in Menu > Settings > Document Editing."

    It's great but with this new suggestion I mean ADD as a part of the Notebook on every page, not just when scrolling. This would allow us to easily see the page whether the Notebook is printed. It also can help…

  13. please redesign the „more option“ - window, that the diffrent options aren‘t listed in line and you have to click the leftor right button to see the other options. Please list the diffrent options in vertical way (like in the picture)

  14. The ability to have a function under Export page that not only exports the PDF but also the converted text in the body of an email would be great.

    The Remarkable 2 implements an element of this in one step and also Notes Plus implements this quite well.

    I take copious notes in all my meetings but then send to my PA to action highlighted actions straight after each meeting.

    It’s cumbersome in Good Notes currently, you have all the functionality ... just needs pulling together in one step.

  16. Just like creating unique pen by myself, which will be convenient in particular occasion, instead of setting everyting any time we switch to another occasion.
    It's the same with other tool, but pen is the most important.

  19. This very easy-to-add feature makes the life of PDF readers A LOT EASIER, by rapidly switching between pages when reading and allows them to pass up the annoying scrolling. It is featured by Notability. PLEASE make it happen!
