Please please give us locking layers. So many design your own planners. Would be amazing to be able to lock layouts and design on top.

I see myself using this function on a daily basis for my calendar. I'd love to be able to have separate calendars in different layers to see what I am doing each day and show or hide things not unlike one does in apple or google calendar. So far I just use different colors, but since I can't filter by color, things get very busy looking. It would also be cool to have drawings or a base diagram on a certain layer with text and be able to toggle and adjust them individually. Maybe start with just 2 layers toggleable / adjustable layers in addition to the base file and see how it goes?

Firstly, Thank you @Brooke for taking the time to gather and post all the threads of similar nature. I’m voting on them all!

The issue for me:
Text boxes (that have to be placed and then annotated) often shift while using gestures; which cause annotations, such as highlighted text, to be in the wrong places. Not only is it annoying but if it’s not caught straight away, can be problematic. Layers or the ability to lock items in place would solve this.

I ought to mention that having a text box deselected from the lasso tool does not always work. If I tap on the text box alone, I can still move it.

My specific use case: Scripts for theater shows. It would be HUGE to be able to have the Sound department write their notes and cues on a layer, the lighting department write their notes and cues on another layer, the stage manager write their cues and notes on another layer - but then to be able to turn on and off each department's layer. Additionally, being able to have multiple layers visible, but have only one ACTIVE layer - ex. I would like to see the lighting department's layer while I am writing notes on my sound department layer, but not impact the other layers.... it would be Huuuuuuge. Thank you!

I am in the military and we use the app IOT draw maneuvers. Usually we need to overlay different types of layers to analyze and facilitate the Decision Making Process. This feature would be very helpful and it will make the process neat and simple. In an environment where time sensitive decisions can save lifes, this feature would be a perfect life saver.

This would be very useful - locking certain layers so you can write/draw over them and erase without messing up the locked layers would be great!

This would be AMAZING! Very much needed. Currently, I’m having to use other apps in my workflow. Layers would greatly improve the experience and reduce my reliance on other apps.

Yes yes yes ! Please make it happen quickly, it’s very needed !!!

Would be very great for the post-it note suggestion as well.

Layering feature is gonna be a major pro for users who are considering which note taking app to get, please consider it and make it happen pls pls

Yes please do this, very needed. Otherwise sticky notes are useless, because oYOU cannot move to see what is underneath. Why even use a sticker then

Sometimes it would be nice to replace things in a certain layer (for example a layer that you can name, extra explanation), so that other things in other layers don't move with it

I know everyone is busy. But if it existed, everyone in the world would be saved.

I want to make use of the inserted image and draw line drawings based on it.
Maybe it's called layers.

Please make it this happen. Very annoying to edit image, but at the end image is moving.

Would be nice to be able to lock layers. Too many times i wind up accidentally moving stickers, backgrounds, or completely erasing images.

GoodNotes has become great software for students and digital planners alike. Many people crossing over into both those categories.

We draw, we add images, stickers, text and handwriting. We can let the lasso choose ‘image only’, we can send items to the front/back, but what we can’t do is lock layers and it’s so frustrating.

Often times I have a background image that I want to stay locked while I move/edit/work on something in the middle layer and/or foreground (picture a calendar made of an image AND text). The current tools make this impossible to do and it ends up taking a really long time to do something that should take seconds.

I know people in the GN community have been asking for lockable layers for years and many are suggesting to go elsewhere. I’d love an answer as to whether this is possible and something GoodNotes would actually consider/put into place with GoodNotes 6.

Please add a "lock" features to lock something you don't want to erase or move. Another "lock" to lock the page so that it won't zoom.

My #1 frustration….when I’m trying to annotate an image and GoodNotes selects the image. If I want to move the image, I will use the lasso tool.
