Moving pages between notebooks instead of copy, paste and delete manually
To move pages between Notebooks, you have to copy and paste the respective page. After that you have to go back and delete the page from the original place in order to avoid double pages. Please ad a function to just move pages from one Notebook to another.
This is already available in the latest version of Goodnotes.

This really isn't too difficult and isn't worth getting too upset about. Some nice udeas, but the real beauty of Goodnotes is that it is minimalist and does just what it needs to do, very well.

There is a way (copy then paste in new file then delete in old one) .... it's way too complicated though. Also would be great to have an easy way to select a full range of sheets rather than clicking on each individually. Also quick way to bulk combine notebooks.

I export the page I want to move as a photo and save to camera roll then import in the notebook I want to move it to as a image. You can still write all over it and edit.

Surprised that moving a page to another notebook has been ignored by the developer. Such a simple function that should have been part of the original design. Agreed that it is almost enough to stop using the app. The copy and paste function does not work as it should. I'll give it a couple of months for the developer to correct. If not, good bye.

Yes, this, except I would suggest Move or Copy.

This is enough of an annoyance to me personally to stop using the app. This needs to be added to be functional.

This is my major annoyance with the app. Would love to be able to move pages into new notebook.

I support the request to be able to move pages between notebooks. I tend to grab a general notebook to take notes quickly then would like to move the page to the right notebook afterwards.

Is there a way to move pages from one notebook to another? When inside a notebook it would be great if I could go into the edit menu, select pages and then click on 'move' and then select the other notebook to send them to. This would help keep things organised.

Agreed - this is a major annoyance with the app (which is otherwise fantastic). Upvote for the solution brought forth by both Rafa and Erik, that is a "Move to..." option when one or more pages are selected under the Edit menu, to *move* the selected pages to another notebook (with the destination notebook to be chosen after clicking "Move to..."). Should support a multiple pages selection ideally.

I would like to select any page from any notebook to create a new document. Using a drop window to add the pages in, and then have the ability to move pages in the window to create the order you wish. Give the option to save all pages as a new document, only print or email the pages, or move to a new document while deleting from the previous location(s).

This feature should be available for single pages ("Move page to...") as well as in the Edit menu to move several pages at a time. Major annoyance that this isn't available. Especially that I have to go back to the original notebook, figure out which pages I just copied, reselect them, then delete them.
In fact, another excellent version of this feature would be "Create new notebook from selected pages." Which I often have to do as projects evolve in my work.

Yes, the number of times I have to move a page and can't. this would be really useful

Agree. This is my major annoyance with this app.

I would recommend mimicking the functionality of the copy button with the exception that when you insert into a new notebook (Complete the move) the pages disappear from the source notebook. Standard move feature for most programs. Using up a lot of time in the copy/paste/delete routine.

Hi Philipp,
thanks a lot for sharing the idea. Do you already have something in mind, how you would like to move single pages between notebooks?
