  4. We move files between users and folders. Each time a user opens a GoodNotes file and exports it with his her changes, a date stamp is added to the file name. This feature forces our team to manually rename the file to its original file name, I.e. remove the date stamp.

  5. On a daily basis I (and tons of other students) find it extremely useful to take photos of the board the professor writes on and insert said image into my handwritten notes.

    The document scan feature is perfect for this, as it straightens and adjusts the image and makes it more legible.

    Unfortunately every time you use it the scanned image is imported on a new page. An option to insert the scan as a resizable image instead would be perfect. Thanks!

  6. Easy way to replace pencil color palates between dark colors (dark colors to write on white/light pages and bright colors to write on black/dark pages)

    Replacing all colors while switching documents and pages can be annoying.

  8. This would be so helpful, if we could get like a link to our study sets and be able to do them on the computer. Smart learn syncing with the app would be great also, but it might not be possible as its a public link

  11. Please give us a fast way of adding notebook pages or purchased papers to our Template Libraries.

    I just bought a number of paper templates from the GoodNotes Store and it seems will now need to waste twenty minutes manually exporting PDFs of each individual page, and manually adding each page separately back in to my Template Library. It won’t import a multi-page pdf and split out the pages. It won’t import an exported GoodNotes notebook. It will only import templates from Files or Photos. It would be nice to just tell it to add page X from notebook Y…

  12. Is it just me?
    - You look at a part of your page
    - select the writing box
    - and it jumps to a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT part on the page

    So you then have to zoom out, orientate yourself, and then zoom back in to where you were originally trying to write.

    Clearly a programme glitch. Please look at this quick-win Mr/Mrs Engineer.

    A completely brilliant indispensable programme, so well thought through, I rave about it to everyone......apart from this INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING jumping.

    Please please please fix (please please).

  15. Hey!

    I would like to request a feature that allows me to remove the background of a picture (make the BG transparent basically). For instance, let’s say I import a picture of a cup of tea on a red background. I’d like to be able to remove the red background from the image so that it becomes transparent and doesn’t overlap any object/text close to the cup of tea.

  17. when you use the select tool and use the color option, you should get the option to have multi-recolor, such that you can see each color used in the selected region and get the option to switch each color to another color manually, while also having an all - recolor option to change everything which we have now

    • It should be possible to fetch the desired color from the page, for example from an image.
    • Change the name of the audios, and have something that would appear if that specific page had an audio. | It was good to have an option where what we wrote during the audio didn't stay on the page, or that for example we could record the red pointer together with the audio.
    • The option to adjust the position of an object and "send to the back" or "bring to the front", also divert is possible.

  18. We are an engineering office and work very intensively with GoodNotes to document construction sites. For this we insert many images into prepared documentation templates. In order to ensure a uniform layout, the images currently have to be inserted manually into the placeholders. Here we would like to have a scaling function (proportional and unproportional) in which the dimensions of the image can be specified numerically.

  19. It is hard to edit the title when the notebook is opened because of the Split View window. It always prioritizes the Split View option menu, which makes it quite frustrating when trying to edit the title. Either make the title offset to the side or have a button that enables editing so it is not so close to the Split View button.
