  5. currently it allows the selection of line color and line thickness, but they are isolated from each other, if they can be combined as a "compound style", and have multiple of them, it will be perfect.

    e.g. compound style 1 = "red line + thickness in 1mm"
    compound style 2 = "green line + thickness in 2mm"

    if i can select directly between compound style 1 & 2, instead of keep selecting between red / green AND 1mm/2mm, it will be very very handy.

  6. I tried the text feature on the flashcard part of goodnotes and i like the way it looks. but it's really annoying that I can't add photos to it with text. Only if I write out my cards am i able to add photos.

  8. Not sure if anyone has suggested this. I am using Goodnotes on both my Mac and iPad. It takes quite a while for the notes to sync between the 2 devices. And sometimes it does not even sync. It would be good if Goodnotes can use Mac as a local cloud server, and notes can be synced seamlessly.

  9. Add a timer to flashcards.
    For example, I can create a timer so that I have 10 seconds to answer the flashcard before the answer is displayed.

  11. add the option that changes the color of notes, as sometimes I write something in a specific color but then I need to change it and rewrite the whole thing again so having an option that would change the color of the paragraph that I wrote and not waste my time would be extremely helpful.

  12. When I write something on the picture I pasted, my palm always unintentionally touch the picture and the picture suddenly move. This happens in all devices. So it’s a system problem. Please fix this problem.

  14. It would be great to have a little image of the current canvas on the side of the page, indicating which part of the canvas is currently shown.

    This would greatly improve overview and usability.

  15. Ability to link to locations (pages, objects, text, etc.) within Goodnotes. I want to add tabs (like section dividers in physical notebooks) and link them to the start of a section, let's say an index. Then, on an index page, link to the specific page of a topic (and so on). It looks like everyone is building their templates in Keynotes, then PDF, then import. This is fussy, but works. The problem with this workaround is that you have to define all your pages when you build your template. You typically don't know how many topics each section will have…

  16. Instead of having all of the colors next to one another, create a new way to organize the colors into different folders. This would make it easier to stick to a certain colors when using GoodNotes. While people would still have the option to have the colors side by side, allowing for some sort of organization folder would make it easier to find some colors and stick to those depending on the document being worked on.

  18. I would love to be able to change the order of my flashcards (in ministure mode).
    Also, I would like to star/bookmark certain cards the way I do with regular documents. A separate study option for bookmarked cards would be super useful.
