  1. 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

  2. So, I personally think the app is getting better but, recently the feature that allowed us to draw straight lines, circles, arrows, graphs, etc have changed a little bit. It is less fluent and I can’t do 2 lines that will stick together automatically for example. Which I was able to do in the past. So it is impossible for me now to draw straight arrows or graphs which is quite frustrating because I used to use these features a lot. Now the lines are straight BUT no longer automatically horizontal or vertical you know ? You can maybe add…

  3. a template group can have a lot of templates, which can make it difficult to still have an organised overview. when putting templates into folders within a template group, it can make it easier to find and pick the desired template.

  4. The touch bar is a whole new feature that can be used with the app! I would love to use and customize my touch bar to highlight, edit text, change between read/edit mode!

  5. When using the shape tool, make it so that when the line is relatively close to horizontal, make it snap into perfectly horizontal. Underlining pdf's is hard when all the straight lines are slightly slanted. I think this worked until the update 3 days ago. Thanks.

  6. A tool (like in a CAD software) to find the next line intersection and trim the selected line. Example- if you have a handwritten 'X' , selected this tool, and tapped the top right section of the line going bottom left to top right, it would look like 'λ'

  10. It would be useful if Goodnotes could retain the preferred sorting criteria by folder/file list. Personally, I prefer by type for lists of folders or lists of archived notes, but for long list of files including some files which I use daily, I would prefer by date. Right now, I have to manually switch the sort criteria each time I access the different lists.

  11. In den Textfeldern funktioniert schon das Thema, mit der Tabulatortaste der Tastatur den Text zu verschieben. Nur leider begrenzt. Nur über 5 kleine Schritte, dann springt der Text bereits eine Spalte tiefer und rechts wäre noch soviel Platz frei...

  12. As a Goodnotes user on Ipad (+ Pencil) and Iphone I would really like more flexibility with using a keyboard for text imput on both platforms, but primarily on Iphone.

    I would really like to have nested bullet points, dashes, numbering, and indentation features available within the Text Boxes

  13. This way a new note would automaticly be stored on my NAS. Also I would not have to use ICloud to see my notes on other devices. This would make things a lot more orginised and it would also save storage space on my ipad! :)

  15. I'd like to be able to select multiple images and upload them as templates (paper/cover) as it's a bit tedious when I want to upload many original templates, and having to upload them one by one.

  16. It would be wonderful for view only links of documents. As a teacher teaching during distance learning, I would like to post notes that I’ve written without giving the students the ability to edit it.

  17. It would be great to be able to have a header seperate to the rest of the page to hand write titles. The you could set he header to duplicate across the next x amount of pages.

    I know you can hand write the title each time, or lasso tool the title and copy it manually, but longer documents can be tedious.

    I would like to be able to write “Lecture 1 - Introduction” on my first page, the set the header to repeat for the next 3 pages. Then write “Lecture 2 - Theory’ on page 4, and set…

  18. I create my notes off professors’ notes, and thus I need an option to go to a subsequent number when I hit enter. I still use Microsoft Word for this because GOODNOTES 5 doesn't offer this possibility. Also, it would be great if you could integrate GRAMMARLY to GOODNOTES 5.
