  2. Include a landscape version of the A6/A5 paper templates for use in flashcard/jotter style note taking. At the moment there isn't even plain landscape A6/A5

  3. As automatic backup or icloud sync copy directly of the modification into the backup, it could be useful to have a backup option to allow different backups in time. So that if an error is made (file deletion, bad document modifications), it can be possible ot restore from an old backup.

    Ideally like timemachine for apple or more basically different backups with the delta of modification.

    Thank you for your great job!

  4. The best way to describe this is like the feature in Notability. You have the option to use scribble which automatically converts your handwriting your text or you can draw in your text box. I’d like to see both these options available since the current text box is really small and difficult to adjust once you have it in place.

  5. So the idea
    Is if you a pdf
    With an image
    You have a the new
    Flash card tool option
    You can select a text
    To make it a close or flash card
    Or an image to occlude it
    Now once that is done

    Just double tap the icon on tool bar to enter into flash card mode

    Once you revised your answer

    Move on to another topic

    I have loads of idea
    And would love to work on your team

  6. Currently there is no way to write in a straight line using unlined paper in Goodnotes. A line guide built into the Zoom box would do the job nicely. This way you would be able to write straight on unlined or blank paper and never worry about your handwriting getting too big or too small as you write on blank paper. A line guide would allow you to safely write neatly in a straight line on blank pages.

  7. Sehr sinnvoll wäre für mich, wenn ich ein Kamera-Fenster aufziehen könnte, in dem das Kamera-Livebild gezeigt wird. Sehr sinnvoll in der Schule, wenn etwas demonstriert werden soll und gleichzeitig wichtige Inhalte zu sehen sein sollen.

  8. When displaying a pdf/powerpoint in class, "next page" and "previous page" buttons are missing.
    For example, when using overlays on successive pages, it's better if there is a clear change instead of a unprecise swipping.

  12. 目前软件可以圈选涂鸦,识别出文本,但有所不便。建议增加选项让用户能直接将圈选的文字转换成含有标准字体文本的文本框存在于文档中。
    此外还建议圈选区域不限于涂鸦,而是任意区域都可以圈选出截图供复制和拖拽到其它笔记或者应用中。

    I am a Chinese user, and the following text is generated by machine translation.

    Currently, software can circle doodles to recognize text, but with some inconvenience. It is suggested that an option be added to allow users to directly convert circled text into text boxes with standard font text to exist in the document.
    It is also suggested that the circled area is not limited to doodles, but any area can be circled to select screenshots for copying and dragging to other notes or applications.

  14. the shape tool needs to be improvised. following are my observation on shape tool limitations and features that require re inventing
    1. the resize option actually make the diagram thicker.
    2. the line do not perfectly align tangentially to other lines and circles
    3. The shapes tools should also have a auto deselect option like eraser.else if someone misses to switch to pen erratic drawing occurs and one needs to undo.
    4. the shapetool can occur some mathematical standard shapes like, ellipse, parabola, graph axes, sine and cosine graphs
    5. ability to move one vertex of polygon to achieve desired…

  16. I do understand that it makes sense for the document to pop back into central view when dragging to the side, but when handwriting at the document’s edge, this becomes an annoyance.

    How about a new action/feature where the documents still pop back into central view under normal circumstances, but when the user really drags the document far off to the side, the document stays there at the side of the screen. Now the user can handwrite comfortably, with his hand resting on the black part (background) of the screen, and the document on the other side of the screen.…

  19. Please make smaller query intervals for cards you don't know yet. Even if I have classified half of the flashcards as difficult, the query interval increases significantly.I think it's good that not every day the same flashcards and always only a few flashcards are queried. Nevertheless, the date for the next query should also take into account the cards that were not queried on this day and were previously classified as hard, otherwise they will be queried, for example only in two weeks, which affects the learning progress.
