  1. In a pdf, it's hard to markup boxes for writing without guidelines. Being able to pull out guidelines like in Photoshop would make it a breeze to write straight and bring out as many guidelines which would never ever print, and they would not interfere because they are dotted and very light. Especially both vertical and horizontal guidelines would be great, because on PDFs, you can't easily change the paper for the whole document.

  4. Just dragging the pencil over the txt should select and allow drag and drop

    Copy , cut and paste - the Text must be from the PDF and not what’s added by goodnotes

  8. Not a suggestion, but complaint. Unable to set a file name to exclude from the auto-backup. I can't click on the section, and there is no where for me to set a file name to exclude.

  9. I was wondering if you can add a feature?

    I would love it if you could make it that you can scroll the page you are working on up the screen further than just to the bottom of the screen. What I mean by this is rather than have the bottom of the page you are writing on stay at the bottom of the screen, it would be great if you could actually scroll the page up so the bottom of the page you are writing on is actually half way up the screen so you can still rest your…

  14. When moving things around using the lasso tool in large documents I often experience that some text just randomly disappears. Sometimes it can be entire pages and it is very frustrating as a student when you just finished a page of an assignment and suddenly it is gone. If I restart the document then the text is back. Also I experience a lot of lagging when in a large document. I think these two things have to be fixed because I find GoodNotes the best note taking app on the market except for this rather disturbing error.

  15. I would like a quick access to the eraser. Instead of selecting the eraser in the menu bar I would for example love if you could change to the erase with a simple click or gesture on you screen. Maybe a quick double tap with your pencil

  16. I'm sorry to use this forum incorrectly. I'm not here to contribute idea, but rather seeking help. The zendesk on your website doesn't help to solve the issue.
    I have the GoodNotes 5 on my IpadPro and recently I downloaded the same apps on my iphone 11. During the syncing, there is a pop-up message to urge me to update the GoodNotes 5 on my IpadPro or it is unable to sync. Both apps were updated and I restarted both devices. But the problem persist. I need some help but do not know where to get it... Hope to hear…

  20. I love that users can propose new functionality and vote on others’ suggestions.

    What if users who are really keen on seeing certain projects get up, could also pledge $$ to help fund development of specific features?

    It would be a way of us putting our money where our mouths are. If lots of users really want to see a feature, and if we all throw in even a dollar or two behind that feature, then this could give you the resources to pay for hiring developers to implement that idea.

    You could even offer an Incentive Scheme — that…
