  1. 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

  3. 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!

  5. 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.

  6. I want to make a digital scrapbook and would love to see some glitter and metallic pens. Microsofts One Note has them but your app is better.

    • 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)

  8. 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.

  9. I think it would be great if the zoom window toolbar could be customizable.

    For example, I frequently use the shapes tool so it would be convenient if I could move that tool down to the zoom window toolbar. Or for other users, they may want to move the highlighter tool down, etc etc. If the zoom window toolbar could be customizable, it could be made more efficient for each user’s needs.

    Also, I would like to be able to add more than 3 color presets to toolbar. This could be useful for people like me that need to quickly…

  10. Add a keyboard shortcut, like a CMD+F for searching something in a text. It is very annoying to always have to tap instead of just press some buttons. Thank you!

  11. Good morning,
    Please tell me, if there is any possibility to integrate the hyprtlink-function into goodnotes. With this tool ist should be possible to connect
    Notes within goodnotes to each other or to external documents.

    Kind regards,
    Wolfgang Kunz

  12. Would love it if in addition to the "fountain pen" option, you could add an Italic pen option for writing Italic and other calligraphies

  13. Have the ability to write on a second sheet that is superimposed on the page as a layer.
    This would make it possible to add elements on the layer, for example text on an image, and to be able to manipulate them easily.

  14. I use zoom window all the time for taking notes on powerpoint slides but the biggest flaw that always comes up is my written not being straight or the same height due to their not being any guidelines on the powerpoint slides. It would be nice to have guide lines on the zoom window that only appear on the zoom window to help writing in a straight line

  19. I found GoodNotes to be very versatile even for doing wireframes for mobile design. Although with the ever changing sizes, it would be great if we can customize the size.
    GoodNotes is also the most smooth note writing app I’ve used. It would be great to have an option for unlimited canvas so I can use it for larger brain storming sessions.
