  1. I love the flash card tool. It would be very nice if there was an option to show the "answer"-side first in the learning mode. For example it would be very nice to learn words of a different language in both directions: French - English and English French.

  2. Man wählt eine gewünschte Größeneinheit (mm ; cm ; m ; etc.) aus und kann nun in einem kleinen Fenster über der gezogenen Linie sehen wie lang sie ist.
    Weiterhin, sollten zwei geraden miteinander verbunden sein, sieht man den Winkel zwischen beiden

  3. I know you have a Flash card tool and spaced repetition but only inside of a document. It would be great to have a separate place where you have all your flash cards within the Goodnotes app and it tells you when to study what and you then go to the specific document

  4. For the Mac version of Goodnotes, the application should remember the previous window size and location (even on large external monitors) on each subsequent reopening. This is a standard feature of all "well behaved Mac applications".

  5. I'm currently taking a math class and the exam reviews don't leave sufficient space underneath the text so I can work out the problem. So it would be really efficient if we could add a white space or whatever is preferred, right below where we need space to write in. I know we could just add a page, but there's usually more than like 8 problems per page that I don't want to waste time writing out separately.

  7. At the moment, any time I reopen the app the outline settings is reset. This is very annoying as some of the imported PDFs contain their outlines which I do not wish to see in my custom outlines. The settings should be remembered for each document.

  8. The dark paper templates are grey. I like them but black templates would be a lot easier on the eyes.
    I tried importing a custom template but the zoom feature didn’t work well with it.

  9. I feel like it would be really nice if we could have a couple more customizations for the pen? Especially the amount of streamline, and also potentially the pressure sensitivity?

  11. Adding the ability to scroll through notecards in practice mode rather than having to select how we felt we did would be helpful for studying

  13. When you import custom templates, the zoom window return height doesn't change even when you change its value to a similar value that the other default templates of the same size have. For example, I import A3 templates and even though I change the height to ~30, the zoom window always jumps way lower, a whole unit of its height below, instead of just a line like in the default goodnotes templates.

    Many users import custom made templates and it gets inefficient always having to place the window where it should be.

  15. Taking notes during a presentation I really need to be able to take a picture of the slide and annotate it. Unfortunately it seems I have only the simple cam (no full scanning feature with rectification canvas-based) so I get a distorted image. Just make it available to use this feature (documents scanner) within the note.

  16. when you go into the editing page for a color you saved, it does not provide the hex number, making it difficult to make highlighters and stuff the same color.

  17. it would be extremely nice to have a setting so horizontal scrolling could be like the vertical one, where if i just need one swipe to pass multiple pages. i like the horizontal layout but find it very slow and frustrating to move between pages.

  18. 建议可以让文字和手写有相同的颜色!
    在笔记中有时候会用到大段文字输入,和手写不能同一个颜色实在是太难受了!而且输入文字的颜色不可以自由加入保存

  19. Currently shapes are only supported and created by scribbled pen input. Sometimes I want to modify the size in height or weight, rotate or color the shape. It would be necessary to offer modifiable shapes like you can do e.g. in Miro or Adobe Illustrator. Set starting point, move the Apple Pencil to desired ending point and voila your rectangle is created. I wished you could also color shapes with border and background color. I think it would help a lot in daily routines.

  20. After editing a shape we should be able to touch the screen once with the Apple Pencil to “click out” of the shape editing mode. Each time I do this a mark is created because the pencil goes right back into writing/drawing mode
