  3. The ability to create your own columns on a blank sheet of paper so that you are able to use the entire page and not just the left/middle/right of the page.

    Also the two and three column template is currently broken and will only let you write in one of the columns (as seen in the attached image)

  5. When selecting objects written with pen or highlighter by using the lasso tool, add an option to the lasso tool which allows you to create internal and external links just like we can currently do with text!

  6. I would appreciate the option to have a maths keyboard on the app. iOS doesn’t have an option to allow me to use key maths symbols which I need for my revision, I am drawing them myself & then manually copying/pasting them whenever needed. Having options to quickly select symbols like ‘sum of’, integral, alpha, beta, delta, pi (etc), would be very convenient and widely used.

  9. When you are in the classroom sometimes you take a picture of a projected slide from the side, so the picture is in “diagonal” or angled. There are apps that allow to adjust for the tilted angle to return the picture so it looks like it’s facing forward. It’s better, and more readable. It also takes less room from you note since you don’t have excess corners

    The request idea is to be able to adjust the corners so the picture adjusts the angle and it looks facing forward

  11. I have hundreds of flash cards as a uni student and I like to access individual ones to refresh my memory as I study. I have seen there is a search function for other documents but cannot find one for flash cards so I can't easily find a specific card without scrolling through the thumbnails? I absolutely love Goodnotes and use it all the time. University would be tons harder without it so thank you :) I would love a thumbnails search function for flashcards please.

  16. I'd like to create flashcards because it helps a lot in recalling topics for exams. It also gets easier to have this as a sort of note-taking. Please I'm begging Goodnotes for this feature to be included in the Goodnotes for 'Windows', this means a lot. Thank You.

  18. Hello,
    I love the ruler which comes with the latest update.
    I use the checkered sheet template in Din A4. Normally one box is 0.5cm long. The template from Goodnotes is a bit bigger. That's good, because I'm a teacher and so the students see a little better via the beamer, because just everything is a little bigger what I write. However, the ruler doesn't fit with it, of course. The students are used to 2 boxes being 1cm. But you offer your ruler only in cm and inch. Would it be possible to also add an option that fits…

  19. Hey!

    GoodNotes 6 recently added the option to rename audio clips but I can’t figure out (because GN never tells you how) how to do it. I tried long pressing on the audio clip or sliding to either sides but the only option I get is to delete it. Please GN: Whenever a new feature becomes available, add a small splash screen tutorial explaining or showing how to make use of the feature.

    Thanks for the reply.

  20. I use a notebook for music for church band on Sundays. I upload a set of sheet music, and order the music for the Sunday we are going to play it. I would like to group the pages of each song together so when I move one page it moves the entire group of pages for that song at one time. I like to reorganize my pages so the set of songs for each Sunday are in order for that week.
