Notebooks that remember pen settings

I usually keep two notebooks open on my iPad in tabs. I write in thin black on one notebook, and the other notebook I write on an index card template in a thick marker like pen setting. Moving between tabs, it would be nice if a notebook would remember the last pen setting used inside it. I need to switch back and forth quickly, and having to change pen type, color and thickness every single time gets old fast. Thanks for your great product!

    Please, is this not implemented yet?

  • Diana Abigail commented  ·   ·  Report

    I need this so much. I have different color themes that vary dependant on the subject or notes I am taking.

    Please return this important feature that was able in GoodNotes 4 and allowed writing in multiple tabs easily and fast. Thank you!

  • Mark Lesaca commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes I agree. It will save us time by not switching pens every time we go to that specific page.

  • Mark Lesaca commented  ·   ·  Report

    Pen settings should be saved per notebook, so we don’t have to go back and forth to change every time

    It comes with a USB recharging cable, one pen tip ink refill, and a user manual. $149 from Amazon. Wacom Bamboo Folio Smartpad Digital Notebook.

    Yes please put this simple feature somewhere in the settings or turn it on by default if you want. It is very necessary . You know how many notes people have in average? well I have a bunch and they are as different as they get . I know you can implement this in 1 hour of coding if you wanted. Thanks for keeping it awesome

    I hope they do this!! I have to write somewhere in the notebook what pen settings I used for that notebook (like what colours, brush size, etc). I switch to different notebooks very frequently and I want the pen settings the be saved so bad to save time.

    I love to have each notebook a different theme and it would be cool if you could assign certain colors, pens, sizes ect... to a note book instead of switching back and forth

  • Vincent commented  ·   ·  Report

    I totally agree. It was working this way in GoodNotes 4. I often have one document open with the highlighter, and another one where I take notes with the pen.
    Since GoodNotes 5, each time I change tab, I have to change the pen setting which is really annoying...
    Thanks for the good work. I Love the app!

    Sometimes I have different templates for several notebooks. Some of them may have light background colors and the others may have dark background colors. In this case, every time I switch between these notebooks, I have to change my pen color so that the writings can be shown appropriately and look pleasingly. I wish we could save pen color settings for different notebooks to save this trouble. Thank you!
