  1. Wenn man vom markieren ins schreiben übergeht, soll das Lineal Werkzeug deaktiviert werden, da man es sonst immer selber deaktivieren muss.
    Darüberhinaus wäre es hilfreich, ein duales System zu entwickeln, sodass man bei Bedarf die vorherige Seite klein oben im Eck hat, sodass man nicht immer zurückblättern muss, um die Aufgabenstellung zu lesen.

  2. It would be nice if I could reuse certain drawings/shapes that I've previously drawn, for example saving a certain graph setup (e.g. having axis labelled with distance vs. time) and then be able to choose from my saved shape menu and input it into the document I am working on now.

  3. I'd like to write smaller sized letters in the zoom box, it's more efficient and quicker, especially with a stylus. But if I do, the letters show up too small on the actual notebook page.

  4. I like the new iOS 7 theme in GoodNotes 4, but it has WAY too much glaring white space in the "bookshelf" view and in the menu bars. This is fine during the day for most people, but during night or in a dark room it can cause eye strain which inhibits productivity. For people like me with sensitive eyes, it'd be wonderful to have a "dark/night" theme that could be toggled on or off or even automatically activated based on ambient light. The music app "Ecoute" has a perfect example of this functionality. For me, this is the missing…

  5. Like a multi color pen with 4 slots. Add a 4th slot to the color options, so we can have the standard black and 3 other colors, or any 4 colors we want.

  7. bezier curves are easy to implement and would be great to quickly draw some graphs and curves. I am an engineering student and I have to draw lots of diagramms, a bezier curve option would be handy.

  10. I often use GoodNotes to revise documents sent to me or scans for textbooks.

    Often I need more space to make notes on the page that I am commenting. It would be great if GoodNotes could grow margins around the imported page giving me plenty of space to write.

  11. It would be better to be able to edit the toolbar in zoom window. For example, adding more colors option or adding an eraser button etc.

  12. I like the toolbar at the bottom because it's easier to change between pen, eraser and highlighter like that. But, when the toolbar is set to bottom, the zoom window moves to the top of the screen, which is more or less unusable. Please keep the zoom window on the bottom or maybe put the full tool bar directly on the zoom window.

  13. Beside the Dropbox sync an OwnCloud would be cool. It gives more flexibility in using GoodNotes.

  14. If good notes has another function which provide web-searching and ipad dictionary for words on PDF, it could be the best notes ever in existence.

  15. It would be great if we could post videos inside of documents and be able to click/play them. That would truly make Goodnotes a multidimensional learning tool.

  18. When you Take a picture with the Camera (I use it in the classroom as document-Camera) most pictures are too dark or suffer from insufficient brightness.

    A quick and simple brightness and contrast adjustment will help a lot.

  19. It would be great if you could snap the end points of lines and corners of polygons to grid points especially when using graph paper. This would only be on when shape recognition was enabled. The grid should be programmable, but should default to the drawn grid on the graph paper.
