Ink drawn on top of imported elements jump behind when you try to
Subject: Ink layer jumps behind imported graph elements when selected in GoodNotes 7
Description:
When using GoodNotes 7 (currently on version 7.0.8), any ink drawn on top of an imported image or element (for example, a coordinate-grid or graph) behaves incorrectly after being selected.Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert an image or element (such as a coordinate grid) onto the page.
2. Send the image to the back.
3. Draw a parabola or any ink stroke on top of the grid using the Pen tool (optionally with Shape Recognition enabled).
4. After the ink snaps into shape, tap it once to select or move it.Expected behavior:
The ink should remain visible on top of the graph while being moved, resized, or edited—allowing accurate alignment with graph points.Actual behavior:
As soon as the ink is selected, it automatically moves behind the image or element, making it nearly impossible to see or adjust precisely. Once deselected, the ink jumps back in front again. This repeats every time the object is moved.Impact:
This issue makes graphing, geometry, and math-related note-taking extremely difficult, as it prevents precise manipulation of shapes and curves over imported coordinate grids.Subject: Ink layer jumps behind imported graph elements when selected in GoodNotes 7

Return underlining button
GN recently took away the ability to do straight underling in favor of holding the pen until it snaps into place. I do a lot of underlining of study projects, and that was my most used feature. Now it is gone and it takes much more time to have to hold the pen for a straight line to snap into place. What is wrong with adding that button back into the annotation mix? I am sure I am not the only one who was dissapointed in this automatic new version. Is there a way to go back to the earlier version?

Writing on am image be writing on the image itself
When annotating an image that I imported onto the note, it would be amazing that if/when I move the image that whatever I wrote would move with it as if I wrote on the actual image itself. Currently, I could use the lasso tool but that seems very clunky for such a smooth interface such as Goodnotes

Undo/Redo Buttons
Please bring back the undo and redo buttons in the macOS version of Goodnotes. It is dearly missed by this teacher that uses Goodnotes for instruction.

Infinite canvas is not searchable
The infinite canvas currently does not export as a searchable pdf file. When we export the file, it works like a picture which gets pixelated when we zoom
So it would help a lot if we could search handwriting and text within the infinite canvas3 votes -
Toggle that allows a Shaded Shape Without Outline
Please bring back the ability to erase the outline while keeping the shaded fill after using the “hold to perfect shape” feature. It was super useful for creating clean shaded boxes and diagrams. A toggle to separate fill and outline would be amazing!

Auto-refine/handwriting error
I’d like to suggest that GoodNotes add an auto-refine or handwriting smoothing feature that subtly corrects small imperfections in handwriting without changing the user’s natural writing style.
Currently, when writing with the Apple Pencil using the ballpoint pen, I’ve noticed that the strokes sometimes add unwanted flicks or extra lines at the end of letters, which makes the handwriting look less clean and natural, this is extremely irratating as on other app my handwriting doesnt appear to be like that. Even with the stability setting at zero, it still happens, and it disrupts the flow of writing, especially for users who write quickly or use cursive.
An auto-refine option (or an improved stabilization engine) could help automatically clean up these flicks and overlines while keeping the handwriting authentic and responsive.
It would be great if this feature could be adjustable, so users could choose how much correction or refinement is applied depending on their writing style.

Find and replace text
For long text documents, it would be helpful to have a find and replace option. I have a document, for example, that has 124 instances of the same name that needs to be changed. Right now, I can only do it manually in Goodnotes 6.

Screenshot
Each newest verion of the app makes things worse and worse. Before this latest update if you selected the lasso tool and had handwriting seletion off when you took a screenshot the handwriting would be omitted from the screenshot. Now even with handwriting seleted off you take a screenshot and it includes the handwriting. What is the point of not selecting handwriting if it is still showing in the screenshot?
If I hadn't spent $30 and had years of notes for school, I would switch apps. I am so disapointed with what this app has become. They're just pushing AI features that no one seems to use or even want and trying to get everyone's money instead of focusing on what the heart of the app is...taking notes.

Text style
Please add 3-5 types of text styling so we don’t have to change font size between planners. Attached is 3 different text styling from notability.

Typing/Text Box Needs Improvement
I enjoy typing most of my notes but then adding drawings/figures underneath them, but I find the text feature to be lacking and very frustrating. Specifically the bullet point list needs to be updated and there should be more options to tab lists (like on google docs). Also sometimes when I go back into a text box it will start typing the letters below the previous word. I just find the text box feature super glitchy and could be improved.

Actual 2-page view (no new window/split window stuff)
An actual 2-page view, not the clunky new window stuff.
I dislike that threads requesting a 2-page view in landscape mode were commented as “resolved” by Goodnotes with the release of new windows modes. Using the Split View mode for viewing two pages at once is super clunky. You have to awkwardly scroll twice and activate tools twice, etc. there should be a way to see two pages at once of a notebook IN THE SAME WINDOW.

Toolbar as a Toolbar and not as a hiding mechanism.
Please remove this ridiculous toolbar.
The toolbar is an essential place to find your tools - The way you could customize it was just great - Also it did not hide content behind a floating thingy.
Your decision to hide the ruler behind another tap (And just not allowing us to bring it to the front) is another miserable choice. How dare you?

Make a separate bookmark option when we access all pages part.
Previously it was great. Now I have to select separately whether I want to switch between the two. Remove the audio option and bring back the bookmark option instead.

快把你的实木新系统改回去
设计的越来越麻烦又没必要了，文字输入找半天找不到原来是框选有神秘小开关，框选框着框着有回到文字，神秘小巧思发力了别让ai给你当设计师了，再改那些细枝末节试图成为notability的样子你看人家理你吗，再单相思一个试试看。明明点一下能解决的事情现在多少个都要找半天点好几下，搞出来这种东西的设计师大学没少用chatgpt吧。找个写反馈骂的地方都没有，如果你和notability是宿敌你大概是输得很彻底的小受受！

Automatic Font & Line Spacing for Paper Templates
It would be wonderful if GoodNotes offered a simpler way to format text inside a text box so that it automatically matches the notebook’s paper lines. Right now, adjusting font size and line spacing requires trial and error, which can be time‑consuming. A feature that helps align text perfectly with the chosen paper template (ruled, squared, etc.) would make writing and studying much smoother.
Such an option would ensure that typed notes look as natural and organized as handwritten ones, saving users time and improving readability.

Remove font size cap
With the new update the font size is capped at 100 which for larger documents is still too small. Please let us insert whatever size we want like before.

border shape
Hi, I used to make filled rectangles without borders in GoodNotes, but after the latest update I can’t find how to do it anymore. I’ve tried using Undo and even the eraser, but I still can’t remove the border line.

Toggle or change to Eraser in pen tools (7.0.6)
Choosing pen tools but it keeps going to eraser.
The mode that wrap annotations (pen, editing, writing) in one place including eraser is someone troubling me.
When used lasso tools then change to pen, it keeps getting to eraser before pen. When it wasn’t merge before, I can manually select pen then it’s pen.
Now when I select pen, it goes to eraser.I want it to be pen first when I choose the category.
