  2. You can’t save or export highlights on PDFs imported into GoodNotes. But given GoodNotes is such a nice PDF reader, I want to do reading in GoodNotes and then be able to use the content I’ve highlighted elsewhere, e.g. combine it with highlights in Pocket or Instapaper, as part of my research workflow. But at the moment the highlights are static and stuck in the app, so you have to go back through each reading 1 at a time. Enabling highlight exporting — especially if automated via Readwise — would be a gamechanger in allowing me to use GoodNotes for…

  3. where is the ink color selector in the zoom window in GoodNotes 5? :( Zoom window on GN4 was way better then GN5...
    That's why I'm still on GN4.
    It was your strongest point over others app.... Very sad.. not every one want to haver a big iPad that Don fit on a bag, or have resource to have one... In my case, going all up to the screen change the pen color, to make an obs in diferente Collor, it a sux kind of UX.@

  5. Please get rid of the text box feature in this app that makes you create multiple text boxes and have to manually re-size them. Instead make it so we have continuous typing without text boxes

  6. We need to be able to have continuous scrolling in this app. And I get super annoyed when I have to do 10 things to select and move text. It goes under the GoodNotes pages because they are hard page breaks. Please fix soon!!!

  10. It would be so useful to have font size/line spacing options available as a drop-down menu. I use standard line spacing for bodies of text, but often want 25pt spacing for lists. I can never drag it to this, so have to press the increment buttons 100 times!

  14. When I set the scrolling direction in Goodnotes to vertical, and I scroll up or down, the document keeps moving when I lift my finger or fingers.

    This happens occasionally in other apps if I swipe very fast, but in Goodnotes it seems to happen any time I'm not super careful. That means it happens way too often!

    This makes it hard to get the page to the place I want. If I'm presenting from the iPad, I keep accidentally scrolling to the wrong page. And I personally find it very unpleasant to look at--it's almost nauseating.

    Please, turn down…

  15. I would like to have midpoints and/or axes for shapes. Especially a circle will benefit from this feature. It will make it easier to adjust shapes to each other.
    Currently i need to draw circles in a diagram (imported as page template) and it’s a mess to adjust the circles accurate around the midpoint of this diagram (Smith Chart)

  16. It would be fantastic to have an 'export to Things' feature which would capture all to do items in a note.

    Mindnode has a similar export feature exporting all mindmap nodes with a task directly to Things - with one click

  17. I´m using the option flash cards on the ipad frequently, but it would be really great to improve this tool for usage on laptops. The cards, and shown answers, are really small, so its often impossible to check if you´ve got everything right, especially when the cards are rather full and the textsize is small.

  19. When text is added on one page, Goodnotes could automatically add another page below the current one, so we don't need to pull to add page as we go. Although the pull feature works, it would be nicer if this was done automatically so the user can continually write without breaking up their flow to add a page. The last blank page could be excluded from page exports as well.
