  2. 笔记定义的时候只能够基于单种语言进行OCR,在iOS 15发布后留意到Live Text可以实现多语种同时OCR识别,是否有可能调用API实现多语种同时OCR,尤其是对于学科笔记而言,以中文为主体记录,但很难避免会部分出现数字或英文单词,这个时候会识别不到。

  5. Right now text is entered through boxes. This makes sense for regular note taking, but I think programmers would benefit from having a page type that aligns all the text to the page as plain text files do, and have this page extend vertically for at least a hundred lines.

    Allow for drawings and normal text editing, just have this page be friendlier to coding students and programming notes (also have a monospaced font as default for these).

    A huge bonus would be numbered lines and/or switching to a comment text color through a shortcut (e.g. pressing "/" twice if…

  6. Serious flaws

    The text box never aligns with the horizontal line provided by the "single column" template

    This will seriously affect the neatness and aesthetics of keyboard input

    I hope developers can improve this as soon as possible

    This is really important!

  7. If I'm using Zoom on my iPad, I can't use presentation mode. I have to do Zoom on a computer and share the iPad to the computer via AirPlay or Reflector to get the presentation mode. It would be nice if I could get the presentation mode when doing Zoom through the Zoom app on the iPad.

  8. The idea is to update the file manager in order to make it’s style more uniform within iPadOS and it would be beautiful if we can save directly files in a file-folder that che be found in File app

  10. I would like to write till the end of the last line on a page but auto-advance doesn't suggest that so I'll have to manually keep dragging the window or move it. It would be better if it suggests a new page when the last line is also complete.

  11. Loving the flashcard feature so far. Only thing that would make it more convenient would be allowing some sort of draw feature so that I can mentally dump the answer onto something I can see. For example I'm trying to memorize chemical structures and would like to draw it out first then compare it to the answer.

  12. Please add GIF feature to GoodNotes because in my studies there are various topics on which I have to use GIFs but, I cannot. My notes are pending. Please add this feature as fast as you can so that I can continue my studies.
    I hope you will add this feature.

  15. I use different size papers for different notebooks and have to change fonts in each one. One size does not fit all. Being able to have a default font for each notebook would be great. Also, some notebooks I use vertical scrolling, and some horizontal. Different defaults there would be great too. Other than that it is perfect for me. . Keep up the good work. .

  16. Dear Goodnotes4 Developers

    How are you?
    I am a Goodnotes 4 user from Thailand and I have a question for you. I can't open Goodnote4 after updating my iOS version to 14.6. I have important files in the app and I tried importing them to Goodnotes 5 but to no avail. Is there any way I can get my files and documents back?
    Thank you for taking the time to read this and I am patiently looking forward to your reply.

    Thank you.
    Charles

  17. For example, when I highlight “carboxyl” I can click on the highlight, and BANG—a picture of carboxyl (that I drew in the annotation) pops up. Not only that, but in a pdf, when I highlight a text I can create my own comments in the small annotation box.

    This resembles closely to the google docs Suggestion tool, except Goodnotes!

  19. Making flashcards takes time.
    We could save a lot of time by just flipping the pages with notes.
    By doing so we could use our notes as answers and we only need to come up with some questions for that specific slide.

  20. I would really love to see a lot more theme based icons which can be directly imported in a notebook. They would save a lot of time, since you don’t have to draw them manually anymore and they would improve learning by visualizing the topic!
    This could be easily located in the new Sticker menu (with a search function).
    A really good example is the icons menu in PowerPoint.
    Example:
    You type „school“
    Icons: School Building Icon, Classroom icon, calculator icon etc.
    I think it would be Important that these icons look very simple (Not fancy and colorful) just like…
