  2. When you put a file in the Split View it opens a new window, but in that window you cannot add a second tab when opening it with open in new window button

  3. Allow a sidebar menu link to allow opening a document from recent history across devices.

    Useful when we don’t want to save it as a favourite but have opened in another device and want to pick up from where you left.

  4. Coloured Tabs would be great.
    I have many goodnotes files open, many for different subjects. If I could colour the tabs, I could more easily distinguish betweens subjects and more quickly find the subject I am looking for.
    For example: my thermodynamics folder is red. Notes to my thermodynamics lecture could corresponed to a red tab by default. Homework for thermodynamics, that are also in the red thermodynamics folder, could also have their tab colour switched from red to pink (similar colour, different purpose).

  7. Der Füller in der Notizen-App von Apple hat eine sehr schöne Schrift. Bitte fügt das selbe auch in GoodNotes hinzu. So macht das schreiben noch mehr Spaß.

  8. I have a samsung tab s6 lite which apparently only allows up to good notes 5 and there is no page rearrangement capability. This would be a very useful and necessary capability.

  9. 2024/1/12 取り込んだPDFの内容がすべて真っ白になり、その後手書きで書いたものしか表示されなくなりました。
    添付の画像は、もとのPDFには文章が書いてあり、下線を引いたのですが、下線しか残っていない状態です。バグの修正をお願いします。

  10. There is a move function to add docs into another doc, but it can only move one at a time, I often get lots of docs for reading in my classes and then import them into my notebook for the class to keep a record, If I were able to move multiple documents at once this process would be a lot quicker

  12. Goodnotes should integrate with the new apple journal API for those of us that use Goodnotes as a journal. That way we could be prompted to add photos / videos, and journal about events. Other journaling apps have started using this same API, and Goodnotes could be one of the first handwriting focused apps to do the same.

  13. It would be nice to have a selective lasso option during collaboration so when collaborators write over each other, they can select their own (or the others) writing and moving it instead of erasing/moving both.

  14. I wish I could select only the highlight in the page. It is under the Handwriting toggle. I wish the pen and highlight were separate for the lasso tool so I can selected them individually.

  15. When arranging objects I would like to be able to send back and forward some items between items. If I have more than two overlapping objects, it’s a pain to place objects in the order I want. For example, there are apps the send the object completely to the back or front, but I can also send forward or backwards the object not entirely to the back. I don’t want to send back an object but then have to send front the other and the other to have them in the correct arrangement. This happens when working a collage or…

  16. I'd love to pause the recording and resume without creating multiple recording files in my notebook. The functionality to edit recordings would be great as well.

  17. I wish you can develop a page that users can choose and design the theme that the users like, not based on their iOS appearance. Hope you allow the users to create their own themes.

  18. I think it would be very helpful to have the ability to give the files colour tags similar to the files app by apple. And then maybe a select option on the sidebar where you can select between your colour tags.

  19. I know it's been asked a few times but none recently (from what I have seen). I think it would be the best addition for people like me who write in cursive so that our handwriting is simplified (because I put so much pressure on the pen to write neatly). Procreate has this option and it's so helpful !

  20. Currently in Goodnotes 6 the only way that a generic curve can be approximated appears to be by a parabola, as a Maths major it would be helpful to be able to draw higher order curves (curves with more nodes) as the only way to do that currently appears to be by joining these basic curves which makes the overall curve appear to have kinks in it, adding an option to allow the user to control the number of nodes would be very helpful and appreciated.
