  5. I would love for the highlighter tool to have the option of having a straight end instead of a rounded end. Additionally, I wish there was an option to draw with dashed or dotted lines instead of having to make a solid line and then erase to get dashes

  6. Create a default font, text size, and line spacing that will line up with a narrow and wide rules template. Or, add adjustable line spacing, space before paragraph, and space after paragraph options. It is obnoxious when text on a Cornell template or any other for that matter doesn’t match up with the lines.

  7. My issue is:
    When taking notes, sometimes I accidentally zoom in too much and my writing is too small for a normal document.

    My suggested fix:
    A setting to set the max zoom. That way, for my standard use case, I can set max zoom and have that be my comfortable writing size for the page size.
    Might be helpful to have on a document basis rather than a global setting.

    Thanks!

  8. Ink to maths would be perfect, notability has added the feature via my script and it will be excellent if good notes could do the same

  9. Please allow users to be able to have the function to sync their custom colours across pen, highlighter, text box to allow users to use the same custom colour and do not need to add again in other tools.

  13. Being able to move and edit documents within the app will greatly enhance the functionality and productivity.

    The Lasso Tool should be able to edit imported documents like it is with notes. This is also applicable to the text box function.

    Currently, editing imported documents in GoodNotes feels like using Snapchat. We should be able to move and edit the text as we like.

    I strongly believe this will make GoodNotes the best notes app out there and choosing it instead of Notability would become a no brainier.

  14. Add schedule that can link my document to certain days like for example in Sunday I want to review my pharmacology notes and to complete another note, when I tap on the name of the note that is written on the schedule it takes me directly to the note page.

  15. Please add the ability to set margins on both sides of handwriting paper. The auto advance works great, but since you cannot set the margin on the right side of the paper, the handwriting often goes right to the edge of the paper before the auto-return takes you to the next line.

  16. It would be great if we could fill the shapes that we create with more unique fills. Not only will this make the process more creative but it would also make our visuals more understandable.

  17. I know a lot of snapping grid request have been proposed but I wanted to propose something more specific.

    One of the feature that I love with GoodNotes is the ability to create our own templates with precise format. I attached a file as an example.

    I created a lot of different templates with grids on them. But depending of the templates the size and the position of the grid differ.

    So what could be great is to have the ability to create snapping grid with :

    • custom colors;
    • toggle hide/show (hiding would be useful for not overlaying existing grid…

  18. it will be ok to import a picture ( for example a nautical compass), filtering white so it can be transparent ( already possible now ) and make an area impenetrable so that we can draw straight lines during lessons.

  19. If you open a note or a folder from your favorites when you close the note or folder it goes back to your favorites. Can you make it so it goes to the folder that the note or folder was in?

  20. 我有一個這樣的想法,在整個頁面中提供內置的一個個小頁面。這些小頁面可以通過添加的按鈕打開,但這又不同與超鏈接。這樣做的好處是可以不影響整個頁面佈局的前提下使筆記更一目瞭然。希望你們能採納我的這個想法,期待您的回復。
    I have an idea to provide built-in small pages in the entire page. These small pages can be opened by adding buttons, but this is different from hyperlinks. The advantage of this is that the notes can be more clear without affecting the layout of the entire page. I hope you can adopt this idea and look forward to your reply.

    The original content of this content is Chinese, and only the original text can express the most accurate meaning.
