  1. Goodnotes has available in its pop-up store: "Hexagonal Grid: Draft Papers" which features a hexagonal grid. However, because line snapping only works at 45° angles, there is no useful line snapping for this grid, which makes is somewhat useless as a template. It would be great (and I imagine very easy to implement) if there was a toggle in settings to access 30° line snapping.

  3. Its a pain to move pages by dragging them if you have 500+ pages. Can we get a way to move multiple pages at one time in a single journal?

  4. If you notice, the sticker expansion and edit ‘square’ is a lot bigger than the sticker itself. It does allow you to write right below the sticker, but if you try to ‘lasso’ the text, it ends up selecting the sticker too.

    I hope the screenshot can help.

  5. Beeing able to leave certain files locked in read only mode while having others in editing mode would be a nice adition to the app. For example when I have both a textbook and a writing page opened I would like to scroll with my pencil on the textbook and write normally on the page, without having to turn on and off the edit mode.

  6. I often prefer using the undo feature over switching to the eraser tool and requiring two taps per undo often makes it feel like I have to play a button-mashing Mario party mini game just to delete the last word I wrote.

  7. For note taking I usually use black, red, blue, and one other color. It's difficult to keep up with a professor with change one of the colors to the other. So I wish there was another color selection in the toolbar. Also, the option for more toolbar customization would be nice. I don't use some of the features all the time, so being able to hide them would be nice

  8. Have a choice to upload many photos from our library and on the + page to make a file. So far, we can only add one at a time, but it will be more convenient if we could choose multiple at a time as well.

  9. After selecting an object or text it should pop-up the option or duplicating the item instead of having to copy and paste it. This function would help a lot in efficiency, please work on it...

  10. To use Goodnotes under MacOS with a Wacom tablet, a hide cursor feature would be absolutely mandatory. Write from styluslabs has such a feature. It is actually rendering handwriting impossible if there is always this crosshair cursor present.

  11. please make it work to scroll continuously on horizontal direction, as it is on vertical direction. When set to Horizontal, the pages flip to the next page. it is very uncomfortable when I compare two pages set aside.

  12. Select pen text using the lasso tool, and be able to adjust pen stroke just as you would color. This is a feature on Notability that I'm very jealous of because it makes it much easier to resize notes.

  13. As long as I cannot import the yellow stickie comments from Acrobat into GN, this app is unfortunately useless to me.

  14. I need a template for organic chemistry--Specifically a hexagonal-lined notebook. These are imperative for note taking and problem solving in organic chemistry class and as I use Goodnotes mainly for my stem classes this would be very useful!

  15. I think it would be beneficial to add a feature where you can chose 3 colors that are automatically selected when you choose it. For example, instead of having to choose red, blue, and yellow colors, you could choose the group instead. This way the three colors are automatically selected on the hot bar.

  16. I think a pencil for any sketches and just different pens in general that you could even possibly import would be cool! I would love to have a pencil!!!!

  17. A fast scrolling option is important for file who have LOTS OF PAGES.

    In PDF EXPERT there’s a similar function very useful.

  18. Would there be a function that link to the same or different notebooks page?
    I know it can be achieved through a 3rd party platform but that makes the note not flexible enough.

  19. I hope that you can added two useful functions to the app.

    The first one is that let the user modify the code of book, that is, let the user customize the first page of books. The users can not go to according page that the content tell us because the page number in the app is a sum equals the later page number add the content,including the cover. That's really make me crazy.

    The second one is that Increase the level of the outline. We can add the page to the outline, but we can not set the lever…
