  1. Customized colours when using The Lazo/Lasso instrument to change the color of a handwritten note

    There is often the need to change the colour of a handwritten note or a marker sign through the lasso/lazo instrument, but we can’t choose between our personally customized colours: instead there are only a few default ones, that never match the ones that we have been using for the rest of the document.
    It would be very handy of you add this functionality to the said instrument.

  2. Have the ability to see all your notes at the same time

    Currently, you can only see notes by opening one folder at a time. How about the ability to see “ALL” items that are in every folder. If you take notes all day and you file these notes in separate folders throughout the day, there’s no way to see every note your wrote in the day without opening every folder. If you have an “ALL” option, you will see every note you’ve ever written - no matter what folder they exist in.

  3. Scrolling option must be added to Goodnotes

    Respected Sir/Maam,
    I’ve been using Goodnotes 5 lately and I find it really useful, although there is something you could work on for easy accessibility across distant pages of a pdf file of lets say a medical textbook that has thousands of pages.

    You have provided a ‘Go To’ option but at times the exact page number is not known to us and this makes searching for that particular page quite cumbersome. It would be really helpful to us if you could allow an option that can allow us to fast flip across pages...quite the same as present in Adobe…

  5. Line styles are an absolute must for shapes.

    Line styles can give more meaning to charts and graphs and are so important to note taking I find it so strange that they are not available yet. It's a very basic yet very important feature.

  8. Dynamic Display of Magnification when changing Target box Size

  9. Guidelines

    In a pdf, it's hard to markup boxes for writing without guidelines. Being able to pull out guidelines like in Photoshop would make it a breeze to write straight and bring out as many guidelines which would never ever print, and they would not interfere because they are dotted and very light. Especially both vertical and horizontal guidelines would be great, because on PDFs, you can't easily change the paper for the whole document.

  17. Page position

    I was wondering if you can add a feature?

    I would love it if you could make it that you can scroll the page you are working on up the screen further than just to the bottom of the screen. What I mean by this is rather than have the bottom of the page you are writing on stay at the bottom of the screen, it would be great if you could actually scroll the page up so the bottom of the page you are writing on is actually half way up the screen so you can still rest your…

  20. It would be cool if your “straight line” feature would actually work the first time. It’s inconvenient and why did I pay for your trash app

    My idea includes doing the already available functions but correctly. If you can’t like just give me a refund.
