    1. I’d like to be able to select a bunch of different pages and change the template so I don’t have to do it to each individual page.

    2. When changing the template, the writing will stay the same size while the template size gets smaller making the contents go off the page where you can’t see what you’re selecting which seems like a defect. The contents of the page should maintain the same ratio of size in comparison to the new page.

    3. Someone posted something about being about to use the lasso tool on multiple pages so you can select a…

  2. 目前软件可以圈选涂鸦,识别出文本,但有所不便。建议增加选项让用户能直接将圈选的文字转换成含有标准字体文本的文本框存在于文档中。
    此外还建议圈选区域不限于涂鸦,而是任意区域都可以圈选出截图供复制和拖拽到其它笔记或者应用中。

    I am a Chinese user, and the following text is generated by machine translation.

    Currently, software can circle doodles to recognize text, but with some inconvenience. It is suggested that an option be added to allow users to directly convert circled text into text boxes with standard font text to exist in the document.
    It is also suggested that the circled area is not limited to doodles, but any area can be circled to select screenshots for copying and dragging to other notes or applications.

  3. Often I write something indented and then decide to later to move it somewhere else aligned with the left. However, now it is shorter than the other lines, and so it would be handy if when lasso handwritten text you could also change the horizontal spread. Like how changing margins on a word document will redistribute the text to fit the new margins.

    I imagine this could be simple if the code can already detect and separate individual handwritten words. Otherwise, it would probably be too much work and maybe even require some ML.

  4. The text function needs improvement in my opinion. I would like it if there was an option for automatic bullets with an index instead of spacebar + - (see attached image)
    This would make the text more pleasing to write and look at.

    Furthermore, when I copy and paste text boxes e.g. the „bold“ font disappears and i have to turn words/sentences bold again. An improvement would make my work way faster.

    It‘s a small detail, but it seems that whenever i type the text and i want to edit the first word or add a word in front of…

  5. Maybe being able to click and see like a thumbnail of your „dashboard / homepage“ in order to switch between documents faster instead of returning and and pressing on the „back“ button couple of times to get out of your folders to the main page.

  6. There’s an extension on google chrome that allows you to add notes to highlighted text. Once the note is added, it’s hidden but you can access it again by clicking on the highlighted text or going to your dashboard.

  8. In GoodNotes 4 it was easy to rename a Favorite that has been assigned to a page. This is helpful to navigate through a large number of pages. In GN 5 I only get a list of thumbnails with page numbers, which is useless, unless I can figure out the content of the respective page from the thumbnail view.
    It cannot be too difficult to bring this feature back. The names that I have assigned in my old GN 4 documents are even shown now in GN 5! Since the day GN 5 came out, I waiting for this feature…

  9. When you open a notebook pages are initially displayed in full height. First thing you have to do is double tap to make the app use the available space of the display. I use A4 paper format, not GoodNotes standard.

  12. When switching between tasks on my ipad a preview from GoodNotes with a page is shown which i deleted a long time ago. It would be better, if a preview is shown from the last active notebook page i used.

    Thanks for the report. We will need to investigate that. Could you please check the following:
    - if something similar happens in other apps
    - if you have multiple windows of GoodNotes open and if this is maybe an old window
    - if you can reproduce this problem reliably or only occasionally

    It would be great if you could send us the information to support@goodnotes.com so that we can investigate.

  14. An Export-Function for handwritten (!!! => not a PDF-Version) notes to Microsoft Teams / OneNote would be GREAT! A direct Sync to the TEAMS-Server would be even better!

  19. When I import a document, sometimes I’d like it to be open. But app stays in the current folder and not the one I imported the doc into. So I have to navigate.

    I’d like to be see a toast message allowing me to click to open the newly imported document.
