snap to grid
As someone who struggles with a physical illness (hand tremors), having a drawn line snap to the background grid of a page or having anything snap to a grid pattern of a page, would really, really help. It seems bizarre that this very basic feature is not available as its available on Notability. It's the single reason I can't switch over completely to Goodnotes, as just about everything is great, except for that very, very important feature.

I completely agree. Why the hell is there no snap grid. I love everything else about Goodnotes but really really mis a snap grid.

I'm used to using Notability to this came to a shock to me as well. I have no physical illness, but for the sake of neatness and perfection, I used the "snap-align to other shapes" feature of Notability to:
- Perfectly space apart two parallel lines (think perfectly spaced tick marks on an axis of a graph since we can snap align to a template's gridmarks)
- Perfectly align lines by snapping one line to the end of another line (think drawing an x and y axis that are perfectly perpendicular to each other)
- Perfectly center a shorter line underneath a longer line, both lines in parallel
- Draw a circle that fits perfectly inside a square (so the edge of the circle will touch the square at exactly the points "North, South, East, West")
- Draw a Venn-Diagram so that both sides have equivalent areasCurrently on the free 7-day trial for GoodNotes. The "snap-align to other shapes" is definitely a feature of Notability has makes me hesitate to switch to GoodNotes. If there were a feature like that on GoodNotes that we could toggle on/off, I would definitely switch over.
