  2. Hi guys,

    Not sure if anyone else has encountered this issue, but recently I have started using iPadOS 16 on my iPad Pro which comes with a bunch of new features including dedicated external display support. However, with an external monitor connected, GoodNotes forces me into presentation mode meaning I cannot use my external monitor for anything other than displaying my notes.

    This is a real issue when I’m studying as I cannot read my lecture notes or watch my lecture online on the external display. This leads me to having to use regular notes for iPad to bypass this…

  3. You could select gallery and add your video/GIF. Then you’d be able to move it anywhere in the page and make it any size you want. You could also drag and drop GIF’s directly from other pages. And if possible, record short videos directly in GoodNotes.
    The videos and GIF’s would keep repeating in a loop while they are on the screen. It’d be good to be able to pause and resume them with a touch, and for there to be a option to have a timeline at the bottom of videos (so that you can scroll through) but you

  4. I use GoodNotes for my planning and now create my planner in keynotes first so I can link the tabs to the right page. I’ve seen more people suggesting this feature comes in GoodNotes itself too so you don’t need keynotes anymore.

    I want to add something to that suggestion: I would also like to link objects or text boxes so what you write on one place will be mirrored to another place.

    For example; I have a monthly overview but also days and weeks. I have in every day page a square in the same size as in the…

  6. I want to be able to use the scroll indicator on the right of the page to quickly scroll through the document, rather than using the galley feature.

  7. Currently you have to take a screenshot, copy it, paste it into a notebook and then you can crop it.
    Suggestion: Make it possible to to crop the screenshot directly in the preview window.

  8. As a medical student I have to go through lots of lectures and content daily. I have been using onenote as it allows for a fast importing of powerpoints when you convert the slides into PNG file types so i can make notes around them. Im struggling with goodnotes as although you can very quickly import these slides you cant make notes around the slides and you cannot import the slides onto the page of the notebook eg 2x slides per page without doing screenshots which takes a very long time for a lecture with over 100 slides in it.…

  9. it’s a great function especially when you are running out Of space on ur page.
    I have a suggestion, here we are typing to add notes. Wouldn’t it be nice if we were just allowed to write on the black dialog box that opens up, straight with our apple pencils? As most of us will be using our Apple Pencil to take notes.

  10. Have an option for us to scan document using iPad camera and cropping the image before pasting on our notes, and image pasted could be in PDF or image format. This will tremendously help in note taking

  11. Often the auto-sync across device is slow and bad and I am forced to use the computer only because what I just typed on the Mac Goodnotes don't appear on the iPad version until a long while later. Should give a manual synchronisation option (like anki).

  13. I think many people want better use of theyre Keyboard. So it would actually be worth bringing a MacBook with you, and not only using GoodNotes for Handwriting.

  14. I'd love to be able to make the background of diagram images transparent within GoodNotes. I like how this is action performed using an app called MagicEraser, as demonstrated in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyty9XGv494&feature=youtu.be&t=262

    This feature would be very useful, especially when using dark paper.

    I wish to skip the step of using a different app just to make the background transparent. I constantly need to give my images a transparent background and I really want a faster way to do it. That's why I would love for GoodNotes to have features like those in the MagicEraser app.

    Thank you!

  17. While there is a button named "define" on the right click list, it is not working or popping anything up. I'm wondering if anyone is facing the same problem.

  18. In the "More" (i.e. ...) section, we can see the current page number and it would be practical to have "Go To Page" just below. I also wish to suggest adding some space, perhaps a section title, and group together "Clear Page" and "Move Page to Trash". I very frequently use "Go To Page" and always have to be careful to be precise so I don't accidentally press "Clear Page".

  20. Für viele komplexe Aufgaben wird bei der Konstruktion eine genaue Gradzahl benötigt. Mit einem Geodreieck wäre dies auch ohne andere App leicht möglich.
