  1. Right now there are only two ways to search the text content of your notes. You can search in the file that is currently open or you can search all of your files at once. I think it would be extremely useful if you could specify which files to perform the search on.

    機能の充実

    今のところ開いているファイル内での文字の検索とGoodnotes5に保存しているファイル全件を貫通して検索する方法のいずれかのみだが、
    いくつかの目的としているファイルを指定してその中のみで文字の検索ができる機能を追加してもらえると非常に便利になると思います。

  2. I create a colour-coded key that I add to the top righthand corner of every page in my notebook (coded for priority).

    I manually add this to each new page. It would be great if I could add this to the template so it automatically appears on each new page.

  3. It always takes so long to press export, select Google Classroom, and wait for the terrible extension to load. It often makes my work turned in late. So I think it will be a great idea to add a feature to export directly or quicker to other apps.

  5. Make the square background interactive to work with geometric shapes and tools, improve geometric work on the app for geometric notes.
    So you can create shapes and align them with the square background, with straight lines with no problems.

  6. Es wäre ganz fein wenn es ein Feld gäbe was man anklickt und es öffnet ein Unterschriftenfeld wo man geziehlt unterschreiben kann. Gegebenfalls mit zwei optionen, 1= Kundenunterschrift -> wird nicht gespeichert. 2= Unterschrift zum speichern...
    Vielen Dank
    Lg Markus

    It would be very nice if there was a field that you click on and it opens a signature field where you can sign it. If necessary with two options, 1 = customer signature -> is not saved. 2 = signature to save ...
    Thanks a lot
    Lg Markus

  11. I would love the see an update that adds the option to make GoodNotes zoom into the page in such a way, that it represents the exact measures of a DINA4 page. I need this, because always if I get a task that includes measuring something, I have to print the page and then I can measure it. It would be great if I could just do that on my device.

  12. The color and font and size of the word you enter should be preserved in a few ways like writing. instead of saving only one.

  13. In Apple Notes there I can find Import from iPhone or iPad. This feature would allow me to add photo from iphone or create a sketch on iPad when working on macOS

    1. When viewing a book or document in landscape mode, make sure to view it two pages at a time.
      1. Open the outline (table of contents) in a pop-up window so that you can see it as the text. (Please fix the window so that it does not disappear when you touch a part of the table of contents.)
      2. In addition to bookmarking the page, please allow the user to bookmark the content of the text. (I wish I could see the list of bookmarks in the table of contents, and if you touch that part, please go to the text.)

  15. When using ‘open in new window’, a preset functionality where you can choose to open a document with certain another document, or from another folder.

    Ex I want to open notes w/ my textbook. But it is a pain to go to another folder to open my notes every time I change my textbook for another subject

  16. Similar to the other invisible ink request, but with a twist. An ink that only shows on the iPad, so that a person can create fill-in the blank notes that don't show the answers to people watching on a remote monitor, or freehand drawings live, drawing over previously created lines, giving the illusion to the audience or recording that the freehand drawing is being done from scratch. Kind of like a painting over light pencil marks, but in this case, the pencil can only be seen on the iPad, not on the monitor or quicktime recording that the iPad is…

  17. I'd like to see a native page option lined for calligraphy, italics or drafting/art with oblique vertical lines. Now that I know how to import one (attached here from PrintablePaper.net) that's helpful too but I'd guess there are others I haven't even thought of who would also benefit from an oblique template.

    1. The Lasso tool should work for multiple pages to be converted from hand-writing to text.

    2. If I write from the very top to the very bottom of the page, the Lasso tool is unable to enclose the entire page !

  18. Handwriting style templates with the broken and unbroken grey lines to help structure letter height, both upright and slanted to help with letter formation and narrower grids and smaller lined sheets
