  1. "A selection tool that makes everything inside the selected section permanent, which cannot be erased by an eraser or moved by an lasso pen".

    Add a warning as well to notify the user once made permanent cannot be reverted back. Let it be redone by undo incase of any mistake or whatever suits your logic.

    So the notes we take can be set permanent and if we want to scribble on top of it we can do so!!!

  2. an option to make a summery out of all highlighted text in the same color.
    so if I'm studying a topic with a lot of terms i would like to highlight the term itself during the classes and notes and after that have the ability to extract all the lets say yellow highlights as flash cards while one side has the term and on the other side have the sentence that followed it...
    that way you could have instant flash card built with your own summery and no need to make a new summery or read everything to study...
    also…

  3. When you draw some shapes on top of each other and you would like to align the shapes perfectly, you can't select the shape you draw afterwards. May you can do it better. E.g. you can select all shapes near the area you have tapped with your finger.

  5. As a Student, I use GoodNotes every day. So it‘s normal for me, that I have to use the double window mode. But this is a little bit problematic, if the two windows are the same document. It happens very often, that I have to copy some things from one to the other window, and like this that makes things complicated. You have to do so many things, just to copy something.
    If there would be the opportunity to have two sides, next to next, in one window (provided that it’s the same document), i would be way easier to…

  6. Sometimes reviewing physics equations and organic chemistry mechanisms can be tiresome.

    I have a suggestion, if possible, design a way for the laser to record your writing. Allow the laser pointer to record how you write your notes so when you replay it and you can watch exactly how you drew your mechanism or how you did your physics problem.

  9. Give users an option to not snap the main view to the zoom window whenever the zoom window moves: just have the main view stay on content

  11. There should be an endless page option. The actual page dimensions available are typical of a paper notebook. Turn digital! See apple notes app where there is no limit. Simple!

  12. i noticed that they implimented for goodnotes to create an auto link whenever you type “.com” at the end of anything which is very frustrating when i am not trying to attatch any links. i have to click the link to unlink it only for it to come back the second i continue typing. Can you create a feature in the settings where this feature can be turned off?

  14. part of what makes fountain pen writing look personal and nice to look at it the subtle shades of colour variation in each stroke. You get pooling around the heavy press areas and lighter colour in the lighter press, less corner-y/curvy strokes. No other note taking app does this as far as I am aware and would give GN a really personal, beautiful feel.

    This is why I use a fountain pen in real life - the character of it.

  16. Suggestion:
    Add the option to modify the note thickness in the selection adjustment setting.
    Set the quick selection of pen style,including pencolor, note thickness collection pen, etc.
    In fact, it works pretty well so far,well,we can refer to notability to improve some individual functions

  19. Imagine someone is writing in black paper with white pencil but he wants to print his notes. It would help if he could choose all the pages he wants to print and change both template of paper as well as the color of the pencil. Especially for the color there could be a choice that says change color A (specifically) to color B so as to not lose all other secondary colors.

  20. When we select a text in a pdf in goodnotes, we should get a 'look up' option similar to apple...
    Where we can instantly see meaning or search web!
