  1. After I export a pdf document to another app and then import another file to GoodNotes, the screen is just dimmed as if it would give me the option to select an import location.

    For example, i would export my science homework file to an app. Then, I would import another homework file into GoodNotes while the export option is still open and it goes dim.

  6. I like to use the present mode where GoodNotes shows the entire page rather than just the part of the page I’m currently zooming in on. This works really well for giving lectures on Zoom – the students get a much better overview of the lecture when they don’t have to see me scrolling. But the thing is, a page in portrait mode takes up only a small part of the centre when viewed on a 16:9 display. The rest of the space is just being wasted. So what I would really like is a new present mode that shows…

  7. Using a mouse wheel to scroll to the top of a paper, I frequently end up unintentionally adding copies of the first page. I think my record is something like 6 copies before I noticed and deleted them,.

  9. It appears the Google Drive current integration is just for "My Drive" and not for Shared team drives. My organization uses shared drives heavily and it would be great to have access to them through GoodNotes. Currently, I have to copy the document from the shared drive to my drive in order to work on it in GoodNotes.

  10. Viele haben das Problem, dass die neuste Seite immer oben ist. Das ist allerdings sehr unpraktisch. Die Seiten manuell zu tauschen, dauert sehr lange bei Notizbüchern mit über 200 Seiten.
    Eine Funktion, die die Reihenfolge tauschen würde, sodass die oberste Seite zur Untersten wird, wäre ziemlich hilfreich.

  11. Wenn ich mit dem Apple pen schreibe, bräuchte ich Linien.
    Bei GoodNotes musste ich bisher einzeln Linien zeichnen und darauf schreiben, damit ich einigermaßen gerade schreibe.
    (in notability gibt es beispielsweise die Funktion Haftnotitzen.
    Danke!

    My handwriting isn’t the best, so what I need is a note paper, where I can write on it.
    Notability already got this function...

  14. Ich bin von notability auf GoodNotes umgestiegen und bereue es gar nicht!
    Jedoch wäre ein Verbesserungsvorschlag: wenn ich mit dem Apple pen schreibe, bräuchte ich Linien
    (in notability gibt es beispielsweise die Funktion Haftnotitzen.

  16. Currently we have to create a single new page each time, but if we already know that we need a document with 30 or 150 pages, it would be much quicker if we had the ability to create a document with those many pages.

    Also, in existing documents, instead of creating a new single page each time, it would be quicker if we could tell Goodnotes how many new pages we want it to create each time.

  17. When you add a page by scrolling past the last page (or in front of the first page) it adds the new page in portrait mode even if the page you are scrolling from is in landscape mode.

    This was not the case in the previous version of GoodNotes. Can you make it so it makes the new page match the previous page in format like it did in the last version of GoodNotes?

  18. This was addressed partially in:

    https://feedback.goodnotes.com/forums/191274-customer-suggestions-for-goodnotes/suggestions/38524561-lock-zoom-in-presentation-mode

    But the solution is incomplete.

    The options in presenter mode are:

    • Mirror Entire Screen (can only imagine using this if I was teaching how to use good notes).

    • Mirror Presenter Page - This allows for zooming in, but often leads to some weird scrolling when you've zoomed in on one portion and then bring up the interface box (not sure of its name) and everything scrolls to where the interface box is.

    • Mirror Full Page - This is pretty good. Especially if your page and presentation are both in landscape mode. BUT it is…

  19. I like to use the app because it’s awesome to insert images and make notes as I want, but the text box isn’t practical.
    It would be great if typewriting was easier by having ready-to-use pages and text pre-sets (sometimes it’s hard to adjust the space between lines and texts). It would also be nice to have tables options.

  20. 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.
