Use the current highlighter color when highlighting selected text with the "highlight" button
As far as I can tell, the current version of GoodNotes (4.7) uses the default highlighter color of yellow when highlighting selected text with the "highlight" button. It would be great if GoodNotes could use whatever the currently selected highlighter color is, as I often use multiple colors of highlighters on a single document, and find the highlight button to be a far more accurate method of making crisp, accurate highlights than using my finger or stylus.

Yes, I want this too. I think we should contact the developers and make them aware of this problem so that they can fix that in new update. Have you mailed the developers regarding this? We must also write in app store review.

I am currently trying to figure out how to change the highlight colour from yellow to something else. I have scripts that have parts for people to learn and I want them marked clearly.

I read and highlight mostly with yellow. That then obscures the found words in a search. If I could change the found words-color, that would help!

Stuart is right, but that’s a lot of steps to go through, especially if you always want to use some color other than the default yellow. Anonymous’s suggestion is a good one, or you could also add an option in the preferences to choose a default highlight color (for when you select text and hit the “highlight” button).

If you highlight something you can change the colour by selecting it with the lasso tool and tapping within the selected area, then you get a submenu which comes up with colour as an option, you can then select the colour you want.
