  1. I am required to download maps and images into Goodnotes for work and highlight and markup on these files.
    I find it extremely difficult to spot colours on an already colourful document. Is there a a tool or setting that could allow the user to change files from colour to greyscale?
    There are a few long ways to do this with desktops but I only carry an iPad with me. So unless I have a premium Adobe subscription I am stuck.
    I understand my issue may be unique but I’m sure the ‘convert to greyscale’ tool could come in handy…

  2. There are quiet a lot of feature request regarding being able to export all Highligthed parts of an PDF. However for a start i think it would be beneficial if, you could filter the (miniature) pages in the content view to show Pages that has been Highligthed or written a note on.
    Kind off like the Bookedmarked tab shows only bookedmarked pages. For start it probably would be enough to show the entire page a Highligthed has been made. In a Perfect world (probably quiet challenging to archive) this could maybe work like the preview when searching for something in…

  4. I enabled text replacement in MacOS' keyboard settings to be able to to use λ and ₜ in my Flashcards by simply spelling "lmbd" for Lambda... Since it's not available on my keyboard.
    It works perfectly fine in Safari or pages etc. but not in Goodnotes.

  9. Hello Everyone!
    I write happily and motivated, because Goodnotes made my engineering studies better and more enjoyable.
    With this mindset, this thought also comes: Constrain objects to each other.
    E.g: I have a line, and I draw a circle. I want them to align tangentially. This would be awesome, since the shape recognition works amazing. Tangent is just one thing, it would be good to see other constraints, like perpendicular, parallel, concentric, midpoints, intersections, or maybe the option to define a distance between shapes/points. I know the app should remain a note taking app, but with the intro of math…

  10. Right now, one can select text and press "mark". I want to perform the same action just by using the apple pencil without any effortful interim steps. Using the normal marker right now, I have to focus on drawing neatly to receive uniform marking results that are straight and neat.

  11. Instead of manually making flashcards, we should be able to upload our file and let it generate flash cards for us, it will be less time consuming. Also give different quiz options like filling in the blanks, multiple choice questions, and just writing out the answer

  13. We can write in the infinite grey space on either side of the documet. Doesn't have to show up when printing anything (only print out the page / inserted document). Or have numerous options to format it differently like OneNote when printing things out with annotations on the side.

  14. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I am an avid user of GoodNotes and greatly appreciate the page linking feature. However, I would like to propose a few improvements to streamline this functionality.

    Currently, generating a page link requires navigating to the previous page of the target page, creating and copying the link, and then deleting the text box afterward. This workflow feels unnecessarily cumbersome.

    It would be incredibly helpful if you could add an option to copy the link of the current page directly from the “More” menu. Additionally, having a shortcut key for this function would enhance usability even further.

    Thank…

  15. Add GIFs and videos to documents that reproduce! Have a tab where you can write without modifying the original document, similar to "Ask Goodnotes," and allow this window to follow the text being written along with the audio (for example the "notes" option that is on canva). Improve how text boxes are displayed on Mac compared to iPad, as they currently shift position. Enhance the AI for studying to promote active recall (THEA is an excellent example for this). There should also be an option for Goodnotes to automatically generate flashcards from a document.

  17. There is an issue with the usage of the Apple Pencil Pro.

    First, when using the pen with the hover feature is enabled, the writing experience feels significantly different compared to when it is disabled. Specifically, enabling the hover feature causes severe strokes or unintended extensions in the written text.

    Second, please fix the pencil experience. There is an issue with drawing curved shapes, where part of the shape turns into a dotted line. Additionally, the pencil tool appears too faint, leading to reduced visibility.

  20. I think that the file method is time-consuming, especially if the material is divided into more than one part, I suggest a method such as a divide.
