  3. I do believe that Goodnotes does some of the best (if not the best) work at editing PDF powerpoint slides. One feature that I love about another competitor app however, is the ability to edit on the side the PDF slide aka slide notes. This would be a great way to add additional information (definitions, questions, images,stickers) and avoiding layering on an already cluttered slide. I think this would pair well with Goodnotes 'presentation' mode which I use quite often and pull up my own notes to present lecture slides.

  5. Since the recent updates, my imac will not go to sleep even when I do not have goodnotes open on it - it is kept awake by using goodnotes on my iPad. Please change this as it's costing electricity!

  6. Hi, everyone! I have the following question: I'm planning to translate some PDF documents into French using Translate.com, but I'm doubtful about their translation quality. Does anyone have any experience with this service? Especially interested in technical texts - they require precision and accuracy. How are things with formatting after translation? I will be grateful for advice!

  8. Why would you take away color control after text duplication. It was there until your silly icon upgrade. Did you ever think we were using that feature for drop shadows on text? Now I have to go to the lasso and reselect the text before I can change it's color. An extra two steps. Please put it back!

  9. There could be an option to have text boxes saved in custom locations based on the template. I attached an example if some folks don't know what Cornell notes are, but like having text boxes ready to use in each section of a Cornell Note so there's no reason to click-to-create and resize a new text box on every single page or text boxes already cropped to size in the days/months boxes on a calendar.

    Also please add this even if it this rec doesn't get a ton of votes Goodnotes people because it would SIGNIFICANTLY reduce my studying time.

  10. 希望推出可以收藏文本框不同格式的按钮,这样我们可以一键切换文本框不同的格式组合(包括不同字体、颜色、大小、行间距的组合),不需要再每次点击切换字体/颜色/大小/行间距,因为这样实在是太麻烦了。谢谢!!!希望大家都来投票!!!

  12. There is no colour picker for the background of the Text Box, why was it added in the other colour selectors, but not for the Background colour?

    Please add!

  13. You should be able to have the highlighter or pen tool selected for example, and then click a little button to hide the tool bar so that you can read without distractions but still underline and highlight text.

  14. Introduce a new feature that ensures grammatically correct notes. This will not only grammatically correct the notes but also enhance learning and mastery of the new language.

  16. It would be really helpful if you could add the "post-it tabs" feature, or if you could make the "text" feature collapse into an icon to reduce the space usage.
    And to make the "multi-level lists" feature easier to use and to create more bulleted lists (for example: numbers, letters and other forms or shapes).
    I do really love the GN6 app, I've been using it since high school many years ago (the app version was still GN5) and I would be very satisfied if you could add more useful features and functionalities.

  19. COLOR DROPPER FUNCTION FOR FOLDERS!!!

    I am a medical student and have 12 classes this semester. There are only 9 colors to choose from when picking a folder color. Is there any way we can add a color dropper to the folder colors? To give us more options for colors!
