Locking Objects
Need to be able to lock individual items. In planners sometimes the layout itself is a sticker. Need to lock that so I can move the stickers above without the bottom one moving.
Thanks for your suggestion! We’re happy to share that we’ll be introducing the ability to lock objects very soon.
We’ll keep you posted once it goes live.
Stay tuned for app updates and announcements!

Here’s a suggestion- addition of a feature like “lock/set” where we can lock an object in place on a page, unless it’s unlocked, it can’t be edited. I would love this when I’m writing notes during lecture and create a highlighted text box using shape tool where we get a border+faded shape inside. If I erase something inside it, the highlighted part gets erased totally ]. Adding a lock function would also work great on stickers and photos, so they wont move around using lasso tool unless unlocked.

I use Goodnotes to create video presentations. I have a slide picture on my Goodnotes screen and then write on it. With the new update that allows images to be moved regardless of which tool I'm in, it's causing real problems with the image moving around mid presentation. Please fix this!!!!!

Please make this a priority feature! I take a lot of screen shots and send them to my ipad and work with them in goodnotes but when I write notes on my images then want to move the text around, i have no ability to do this without moving the entire screenshot too! So frustrating

Quick duplicate: lasso/select object, tap, hold, drag, & release.
Options for selected objects/elements: add ability to lock object(s) (to prevent erasing or moving) or group multiple objects together. -

It would be great If we can lock our text box I used good note for a long time, but my text boxes are moving when I trying to scroll the screen.. so it makes me very uncomfortable
Plz make lock function for text box! -

Please make this a top priority in Good Notes. The ability to lock an item for those who journal would be incredibly helpful. We use imported templates that are images. If we can lock this particular image we can lasso other images without selecting all images. Please, please, please add this to your next update :)

Yes. Please do. I don't want to create a pdf that has to be imported with the background embedded. I'd really like to import an image and freeze it in place.

I love GoodNotes! Please add a lock image feature!! As a digital planner, this would be the most useful tool! Digital planning is gaining in popularity and I see people switching to Noteshelf because it offers this feature. I don’t want to switch, but it’s becoming very frustrating not having this feature.

It would be super nice if you could lock things into place, such as pictures or stickers, so they wouldnˋt move around when trying to move other things on theoage with the select tool! Would make digital planning even more fun and exciting!
