  2. I like how the patch tool works in Photoshop, and I think it would be useful in GoodNotes too. I would use it to edit diagrams and remove parts, such as labels, that I do not want. Here is an example of how the patch tool works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=II4lfxoNrJ8
    Even though the patch tool is commonly used to edit photographs, it can definitely be used for editing illustrations too. I have used the patch tool in Photoshop before, and I started seeing the need for it again as I was trying to prepare diagrams for GoodNotes. I feel that it would…

  5. After editing a shape we should be able to touch the screen once with the Apple Pencil to “click out” of the shape editing mode. Each time I do this a mark is created because the pencil goes right back into writing/drawing mode

  7. It would be ideal to have the ability to be able to change highlighted text to a different colour without using the lasso tool on every single different page where that colour is found. It would also be neat to be able to select a page range to change all of a certain highlight colour to a different colour (Ex, having blue and yellow highlight on multiple pages but now wanting to change the yellow highlight to pink, etc.). Almost the same idea for printing specific pages, you'll be able to select single page, range, or entire document and the…

  10. I wish this was an option. I am looking for quicker ways to get to the tools that I need without having to tap on the menu all of the time. It would be really helpful if I was able to quickly switch back to the writing tool after using the eraser.

  11. I’d like to be able to drag and drop files into the document to embed them. Double-clicking the icon opens it in the default app, where it can be edited.

  12. Currently the HDMI output for presentation does not fill the screen - it leaves black bars around all sides, even if you import a 16x9 PDF. Outputting full screen would be a huge improvement, and offering a 16x9 default document size would make this an incredibly useful digital whiteboard.

  13. The grey on grey is very hard to read for the unopen tabs. I can see the text very clearly on the open tab, not so much on the others.
    Thanks

  16. when highlighting texts on a desktop, please have it so the text automatically highlights as well, similar to using the highlighting feature in preview or word. this would help speed up highlighting when using a cursor and not on a tablet

  20. Whenever i type a text i usually have some words in bold. And if i then go ahead and change the size of the entire typed text all of it turns bold and then i need to figure out again which words i had bold and which weren‘t. That is really annoying.
