"POST-IT TABS"

One of the major issues in relation to using a digital file, compared to a traditional paper file is that in a paper file you can attach "post-its" to relevant pages which you can then refer to when you are using that file. This is an essential tool for lawyers, for example. So that, if you are referring to a bundle of files, you can have them in front of you where you can see the protruding tabs and refer to them immediately. The visualisation of the tabs – allows for easy access to the relevant page.

Whilst good notes allows you to tab pages – obviously – there are physical differences between hard paper and electronic paper.

However, would it be possible for good notes to try and emulate this by doing the following:

  1. You have the option of attaching a coloured side tab to the relevant pages;
  2. You then have the option of "see side tabs"
  3. When you press that option, the tabbed pages, with their tabs, all shrink slightly and move to the left – allowing you to see the tabs. Then, you can press the tab which opens the page – similar to how this would work in hardcopy.

I attach a photograph by way of example.

Perhaps, something like this could be considered.

Many thanks for taking the time to consider this idea.

Kind regards,

Asim

    adding a coments/stickers is good feature

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be so helpful! Need it to annotate articles for university. Especially since there’s no split view. As suggested by a previous comment, putting the stickies on extra pages at the end + page numbers is a great idea!

  • Sunny wu commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is needed. Get off your butts and make this a thing please

  • Sunny commented  ·   ·  Report

    PLEASE ACTUALLY MAKE THIS A THING IN GOODNOTES 4 (the better version)

  • Ian Malabuyoc commented  ·   ·  Report

    I hope the developers put this is because this is really helpful when the pdf/file you’re reading has little space for notes!

  • Alexander (Sasha) Sandler commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be really nice.
    Also with stickie notes it could be nice if there was a way to collapse them into small object that user can then expand. This can be convenient when user wants to leave a note without taking too much real estate in the document.

    Similar to adding a comment when using track changes - the ability to add a text box with a picture or a text box with the ability to type new text into the box. It would be indicated by a small button that would shrink/expand near the existing text in the document.

    Would allow you to compare existing language and new or proposed language side by side, without marking up the original document.

    This would help a lot if we could have like a little folder that we open and insert our own pictures/ post-its/ PNG stickers and such. THIS is what the app is missing most in order to be most efficient for creative bullet journaling!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I totally support this. We can add post-it notes right now but they take good amount of the space of the screw. It would be great to minimize it once we take the notes on it and only see the icon of the note able to maximize again as we wish

    A Feature to add notes you can move and edit while reading. Like Post—Its

  • Laura commented  ·   ·  Report

    How does it go? It's two years ago...

  • Dominik commented  ·   ·  Report

    I also really want this feature. It would be especially useful for adding pictures as "Pop-Up"!

  • Maeab commented  ·   ·  Report

    With a post it option, alond side pdf forms, outside of the pge we can add the things that did not fit on the page. Maybe having a calender add on option alongside the pdf.

  • Tara commented  ·   ·  Report

    100% agree! I would love this feature. Even better if "semi-transparent" was a color option!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Urgently need this feature. Time for the new update and new features

  • Yezi commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes please. Desperately need it. Any forms like sticky notes, notepads, memo would all be great. It would be even better if it can be searchable in the main directory.

  • Tom commented  ·   ·  Report

    On hard copy files / larger documents, I use small post-it notes to "flag" key documents or passages etc by putting a post-it at the top or side of the page so that it sticks out from the file and I can quickly turn up that document when looking at the whole file. Could this be incorporated into the planned feature? The "flags" / "post-its" could be shown all the time round the edge of the document or could appear when you hard press at the top, bottom etc or there could be a button to turn on/off as required. If you could annotate each "flag" that would take it to the next level and make it as using a hard copy file.

    Stickie notes that can be added over text that’s there & be made transparent. So you can see text behind it if you want to.
