  1. I love the lasso tool. It’s so useful. But I still can’t rotate text boxes!

  2. For small businesses, it is important to keep your intellectual properties to yourself.
    We spend countless hours creating spreads, and I want to restrict some parts of it so that the spreads cannot be manipulated but users can still write on the pdf and add pages. Sort of like flattening the spreads as a background image with links instead of shapes that can be extracted.
    However, when i restrict editing with a password in adobe reader, I have to type in the password before I can open the document in goodnotes. Is it possible to import the pdfs as a…

  4. Basically, Good Note UI is for Student Note. So Page Size is not Flexable ( It has Empty Parts of App )

  6. I like the presets that you can customize on GoodNotes and having the keyboard shortcuts makes it easy to use a macropad to help ease my workflow even more!

    I would like to take it a step further by having key shortcuts for quick selecting the preset colors and sizes so that I don't have to lift my pen off away from the writing area to select a color or change my tool size.

    It's a small thing, but I think it would really be cool to implement this feature or something similar for people who really want to optimize…

  7. It is so easy to accidentally close a tab/page. Please tweak the close tab button to be double tap.

    Would be nicer if you add a function to restore deleted tab.

  8. Despite Google Drive implementation, GoodNotes is not able to import Docs or Slides. I know there are workarounds, but those add too many steps to my workflow. It would be great to be able to import and mark up a document or set of slides.

  9. Have an option for a block of content to be copied to another page and any edits on either copy shows up on the other one. So for example, you could have a block of writing on a monthly calendar page and then sync it to a specific day's page so you don't have to rewrite everything. What you write on the monthly calendar for that day automatically shows up on the individual day page also.

  10. 我是一个书写爱好者,也是Goodnotes的忠实用户。我认为钢笔的压感并不真实。与此同时,我发现激光笔的压感做得很好(很真实)。因此,开发者们能否考虑一下把激光笔的压感用到钢笔工具上呢。

  11. I would love if we could draw circles from a center point as well as doing it with the draw and hold feature. I find myself often drawing circles and it gets annoying having to draw them and then select it with the lasso and then move it to where I want it. Being able to draw from a center point would be very helpful for me.

  13. Allow a Label next to the page number in Thumbnail view - so that when I click on thumbnails, I can see what the topic of a particular page is.

  16. for using the Text tool with an Apple Pencil, add some movement or mark that indicates "new line" or "paragraph." Currently I must stop writing, open the keyboard and tap "return" when perhaps some Pencil gesture could accomplish this.

  19. I can’t draw a straight line and I use goodnotes mostly for studying and I have to use highlighter a lot and I find it uncomfortable to undo over and over again to undo not-straight line highlight (or even curve line). If I want it to be freestyle I’d set it to freestyle right? So, PLEASE make the option be as it should.

  20. And let it be on top, bottom, left or right. As in Notability, Noteful, ZoomNotes, Flexcil, Drawboard Pdf, and almost every note taking app.
