Please add the lock image feature. It will really help when we have multiple images It’s annoying when your background is an image and you add another and you want to only move one. Thank you

Yes I agree! I would love to be able to lock images to the background of a page so that I can draw on top of it without it accidentally getting moved to the foreground and hiding the drawings. It would also make moving drawings on top of images easier. As it is now if I try to use the select tool to select lines on top of an image, the image always gets selected as well making it really difficult to move lines, which usually results in me just having to redraw the lines instead.

I’m an elementary art teacher. I made my planbook in Goodnotes. I put my seating charts in there- they are pdf docs with photos of the kids. Keep in mind I have 22 classes. I often have to modify those seating charts. It’s very clunky to import them as a new page every time. That takes multiple steps and I would love to crop the image- also I want to keep the notes, so I’d rather just drop it in as an image, crop it and put it under the notes. But then I have to modify my lasso tool to not grab images if I need to move the text. If I could lock it instead- Game Changer for me!!

It would be nice to be able to lock text boxes/ images/ stickers/ etc. to the background of the paper so that we can layer and arrange things to our liking. To enable editing of the locked item, you would have to press and hold the item, where a pop up that says "unlock/ positioning" (to adjust layering) will show.

Text boxes (that have to be placed and then annotated) often shift while using gestures; which cause annotations, such as highlighted text, to be in the wrong places. Not nly is it annoying but if it’s not caught straight away, can be problematic.

I ought to mention that having a text box deselected from the lasso tool does not always work. If I tap on the text box alone, I can still move it.

Hi! Yes, please, this would be a crucial feature. It really, really helps when trying to make organized notes with a lot of illustrations, which is the point of using a tablet as opposed to a laptop.

This would be solved with support for layers too, which I believe is a
More generalized solution that would help more people

Zinnia is a simple app and has this simple ability, along with the ability to be able to turn clip art and elements into hyperlinks that link to both the document and outside links I don’t understand why Goodnotes has not got on board please please please make these features available immediately. Turning pictures and clip art into links to different pages makes it so fun and beautiful to use any e journal. I think it is essential for creativity as well. Also the original request of locking layers Like making an element or clipart look like it’s coming in and out of a box just with the ability to be able to lock certain layers!!!!! GoodNotes is a place for study and creativity and it would be more so with these features please implement ASAP!!

This has been requested for so long please hurry up and do it. I’m desperate.!!!!

Good idea to highlight the necessity and that this topic has already appeared so many times.

However, I think it should be the responsibility of the Goodnotes team to see during the review process that so many topics refer to the same request and therefore implement it.

Lock image is import feature for me because when we use high res canvas, and then annotate something on the image. The layer switching is so annoying

It would be nice to be able to lock photos that are imported. As when writing on top of them, for example graphs and diagrams, they can move, with all the handwriting being lost from its reference point

Please add a feature where the Lasso selection tool can lock and unlock layer(s)/object(s)/text box(s)/handwriting/image(s) or all objects in place, and also lock/unlock the ability to alter the selected objects attributes (color, size, rotation, etc) feature!

When writing notes, or creating drawings it could be helpful to have a "lock" tool so when moving/resizing/or color changes can be grouped together (instead of each time needing to circle every individual part and possibly missing something)

Add ability to add layers to a page or the ability to lock elements to prevent accidentally deleting or selecting overlapping objec(ex. highlights, text, doodles/ hand writing).

It would be great to lock an image in place so that we can select/erase images above without compromising the locked image. I hate when I go to select tool on writing I may have messed up a piece of and it takes the whole image with it. It would also help from accidentally moving the image when scrolling or lightly touching near it. It moves everything and annotations all over the place. It would be a great help especially to save the size and positioning that has already been chosen.

so they don't move around or get tapped accidentally... i love adding a lot of images to my notes via the image adder but then they don't stay in place or i accidentally move them by tapping them... i know i can turn off the 'writing' mode and use read-only but it happens while i write notes and my wrist/palm touches the image.
