  1. I am a teacher and i use GoodNotes as a blackboard. So it would be very useful to have a set Square and a pair of compasses visible to the students to show how to construct geometric forms.

  5. I think it would be nice to have more buttons in the top bar(there is enough space available) where you can customize pen or highlighter options and save them for quick access. An example could be button #1 pen color = blue, thickiness = 8 button #2 color = blue, thickness = 16.

  6. I would like to be able to change from pen to highlighter with a single key. P to pen, H to highlighter, for example. Would save me time, something that simple. Also, it would look way more pro.

  7. Have a hole punched paper template option so that people are able to see where the holes will be if they are printing it. I sometimes have to print documents from GoodNotes and place them in a binder so it would be helpful to know where certain objects/text would get cut off.

  8. Good Notes is perfect for me as a site manager to take plans to the construction site. What I miss very much is a tool to measure. I would like to measure it out of a plan.
    --> A measuring function!

  12. If there would be an option to measure the angle of existing lines would be great. You also could measure distances when you set a refenrence distance first.
    Thank you

  14. 建议工具栏改成可以悬浮的工具栏,每次用橡皮,换笔都要移动到最上面工具栏才能操作,这是一种很差的用户体验。功能上确实已经做的很好了,工程师们辛苦了,但是用户体验真的是垃圾,可能工程师都不用做笔记,这么大的公司难道没有做用户体验设计的吗?
    悬浮工具栏按钮的功能,悬浮栏位置,大小,可以用户自定义。希望快快更新出来!

  16. Enable a "Back" link. PDF "Back" links work until I import the PDF into GoodNotes. I know there is a "Back" menu item but it would be so much easier to support it via a link on a document.

    • Add the option to save preferred, individual colours (now: when typing in a colour code and then changing the colour, you have to type in the code again because there is no possibility to go back to your individual colour)

    • Make it possible to highlight in a rectangle (straight, squared line) and not round

    • Expand options of highlighting colours (more shiny and bright like real highlighters, packages like pastel colours)

    • Add option to make highlighting automatically straight (without having to use the shape button)

  19. My goodnotes documents are extremely large because inserted photos. I would like to select photo from library and the choose size of file... like when I send an email.

    Also when I take photo to directly insert into a Goodnotes.. allow me to be able to control file size.

    Also... GoodNotes should allow me to see size of my file.
