  1. Would you please add the minimal API (AppleScript, JavaScript, command line interface, or other) required for App Name to work with Hook? I use the macOS productivity app, Hook, to provide the missing links between my favorite apps. Hook enables me to to link items from my favorite apps to each other. This provides many benefits.

    Hook needs AppleScript support to get a name and URL (or other unique identifier) of the frontmost open resource in your app; and
    be able to open this resource later using that same URL/identifier.

    That’s all there is to it. It’s quite easy to…

  3. When rotating a page in a PDF document, the width of the single pages varies from the upright to the horizontal ones. This causes vertical scrolling to also scroll left or right sometimes. Double-tapping to zoom also doesn't feel as natural anymore.
    I'd like to have an option to display all pages in the same width. That would solve both problems.

  5. When the zoom window extends past the edge of the page, the next line should appear inline following a grey area to denote the page boundary.

    Currently, the zoom window handles line breaks inconsistently. If the blue 'advance' region is too long for the remainder of the line, it sometimes continues with a carriage return/ line break. However, the auto-advance does not always perform this line break. Sometimes, the blue region appears but only attempts to advance further within the same line. The attached image shows a common scenario: where the zoom window continues well past the edge of the…

  7. Sometimes when users want to open a new document. They have to tap return multiple times to all folders if they have more folders inside folders for classification, and finally they can open the document they want. This severely decrease productivity and annoy users.

    To make tab logic easier to understand, one tap for the “+” button can open a new tab for all documents and open the document they want faster.

    Also for the text tool, we hope that users can set three default style for better visual hierarchy in text notes.

  8. All the things at one place - in GoodNotes

    Please add support to as much formats as you can. Even links with just preview would be awesome. I don’t want to have some type of stuff in files and other in GoodNotes. I all the time struggle to find what I have and where.

  9. Please add the function: so that the highlighter can be kept straight, instead of being held for a few seconds and turning into a straight line. This would increase the speed of working, which is often very annoying when it turns into a curve...
    please apply it

  10. The MagicKeyboard works really badly on GN. Sometimes you can't scroll back and forth on the trackpad at all or it just jumps back and forth.
    As soon as you open a second window, you sometimes can't write at all and have to close the app completely so that it doesn't work again after 2 minutes.
    You should also be able to write on the line and not always in between.

  12. Ability to insert text snippets including timestamps in the page. I place a horizontal line across the page then insert a timestamp to separate new entries in a notebook.

  13. I would like the following features for pens and markers:
    (1)Please be able to draw a dotted line.
    (2)Make it possible to change the transparency of the marker color.
    (3)Make it possible to change the thickness of the line after drawing. (It's not a size change, it's a thickness change. When you scale down it, the line becomes too thin.)

  15. Currently you have to take a screenshot, copy it, paste it into a notebook and then you can crop it.
    Suggestion: Make it possible to to crop the screenshot directly in the preview window.

  17. Especially with the fountain or brush pen, some darkening of the color on a downstroke or with more pressure applied so it looks more like those pens in real life. Kind of like in the example, which came from procreate

  19. Physics major here, I'm finding it incredibly difficult to graph functions using the current curve option. It would be much easier to have an option that makes graphing all sorts of functions easier. So far, the only app that comes close is Colla notes, but I'd prefer to use good notes.

  20. Google Docs has options to change the presets for each section (title, header, body, etc.)

    We use different fonts and sizes (sometimes colors) for each part of our notes, so adding this feature may be beneficial!

    Text Styles may also be the correct verbiage
