  9. I want improved folder/ note organization where the same file can be placed in multiple locations without compromising space (e.g. if I have a folder labeled textbooks, but then want to access a specific text from a different folder like Year 1 Microbiology which includes lecture PDFs, notes, and review sheets).

  10. When using an Apple Pencil with the lasso tool, if I get too close to the edge of the page I frequently go just beyond the edge, causing the lasso tool to think that's the end of the lasso area selection. This typically does not result in the desired area being selected.

    Instead of terminating the lasso area selection when going out-of-bounds, snap the lasso selection to the page boundary and continue lasso area selection.

    (This seems to be the behavior of the macOS app when using the lasso tool with mouse. It would be good to enable similar behavior…

  11. Please add memory of colour to tools. Switching from pen to shape tool, I’m stuck in the same colour used in “pen” , so I have to change the colour . Different tool should have different colour memory

  15. it will be ok to import a picture ( for example a nautical compass), filtering white so it can be transparent ( already possible now ) and make an area impenetrable so that we can draw straight lines during lessons.

  16. It's difficult to adjust the line spacing with the scroll bar because my finger isn't accurate enough so I would like to be able to adjust it by putting the line spacing value in. Thanks

  17. 我有一個這樣的想法,在整個頁面中提供內置的一個個小頁面。這些小頁面可以通過添加的按鈕打開,但這又不同與超鏈接。這樣做的好處是可以不影響整個頁面佈局的前提下使筆記更一目瞭然。希望你們能採納我的這個想法,期待您的回復。
    I have an idea to provide built-in small pages in the entire page. These small pages can be opened by adding buttons, but this is different from hyperlinks. The advantage of this is that the notes can be more clear without affecting the layout of the entire page. I hope you can adopt this idea and look forward to your reply.

    The original content of this content is Chinese, and only the original text can express the most accurate meaning.

  19. Hi,

    I have a lot of folders that contain subfolders.

    It is hard for me to search for documents, as I can only view one folder at a time in the list view mode.

    Can I suggest a multiple-level view in list view mode?

    Its something similar to the native files app on ipad.

    Hope to hear from your team soon.

    Thanks :)

  20. As a pyhsics student I quite often have to write integral and sum signs and in fact I love the function on the iPad that you can hold down the pen after drawing a shape and it draws it nicely for you. Maybe you could integrate some more shapes such as the ones mentiones above :)
