  1. Ich habe 4 Applegeräte, iMac, 2 IPads und ein IPhone. Wenn ich Lernkarten auf meinem iMac erstelle, sehe ich sie auch auf den anderen Geräten. Das ist o. K.
    Aber: Wenn ich auf einem der Geräte angefangen habe zu lernen, kann ich nicht auf einem anderen weitermachen.
    Beispiel: Ich trainiere zu Hause auf dem Mac, möchte aber unterwegs auf dem iPhone weitermachen - aber das geht leider nicht.
    Kompatibilität ist mein Vorschlag.
    Mit freundlichen Grüßen
    Olaf

  2. 使用GoodNotes记笔记半年多,其书写的流畅度是出类拔萃的,只是还有些许功能需要改进,在此提出我的建议,希望开发者可以认真考虑:
    1、绘图功能有待完善。GoodNotes采用手写识别的绘图方式,这种方式绘图确实较为自由,但是失之精确。我在画一些物理示意图时经常涉及到圆、矩形、坐标系等图像,用手写识别的方式绘制相当费劲,建议增加一些相关图像的预设,可以直接拖入图像调整参数,方便精确绘制。(可以参考微软Office系列插入图像的操作逻辑)
    2、目录导航功能有待完善。现在的Goodnotes目录没有页码输入的功能,想找几百页的东西只能老老实实往后划,较为费力,建议增加页码跳转的功能。
    3、文本输入格式有待完善。文本输入时只能设置一些基本格式,另一些对排版具有较大影响的格式如字间距、行间距等并没有办法设置。建议增加文本框的设置内容已满足基本的排版需要。
    4、模板预设有待完善。Goodnotes提供了相当丰富的背景模版,很大程度上满足了我的需要,但是我想要使用一些个性化的背景模版时需要自己进行绘制,这有一定的技术门槛。建议增加“智能模版”,即可以在现有模版的基础上进行个性化的设置,比如改变格线的数量、间距、分栏等等,方便用户自行设计合适的模板。

  3. Goodnotes allows you to set a return line height to match a template's line width, so that when you click the "return" button in the zoom window it moves down the page the right amount to begin writing on the next line.

    However, Goodnotes does not allow one to set a default "indent" setting for that template. Templates with margins -- for instance Cornell -- would be much more useful if the user did not have to manually set the indent each time / on each page of a notebook.

  4. 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.

  5. It woud be very helpful to have the opportunity to use your fingers navigate in more ways. A) For instants, use (starting from full page) 'zoom-out' with 2 or 3 finger to get to overview like the 4-square-icon does, with-out opening a new overlay windows. B) use 2 or 3 fingers to swipe faster through pages in a way the pages will move from the stack of pages.

  7. 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.

  11. Sometimes I import the same image more than once onto a page. The first time, the image will be of a certain size. The second time I import it, it comes in larger. This is very puzzling. 9-handle resize as well as alignment options would be welcome. And like others, I don't understand why images come in so large. Even when they're made pretty small.

  13. 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…

  14. I would like to have continuity markup live where on Mac it will show what I have been doing with iPad and Apple Pencil. Or we can do presentation mode on Mac app.

  15. I am unable to change the default font. I have a particular font and size preference (19 point Helvetica) but every time I copy-paste text, it automatically goes to 28 points Apple Color Emoji. This could be fixed with a customizable default font and size feature. Also -- when I change the font first, then the size second, the font annoyingly reverts back to Apple Color Emoji again. Somehow changing the font size makes the text revert again back to the undesired default font. It would be a fantastic time-saver if this were fixed.

  16. I'd like to have the opportunity to create Symbolic Links in folders. This feature would let us use folders as an index for subjects comprised by notebooks or other folders without having to duplicate it.

  17. besides Mac ecosystem IF and WHEN someone needs to search and extract or share contents from Goodnote in front of a computer it'd be perfect if there's a web portal or web app allowing one to get access to those and work on a PC or Mac machine as well.

  18. Allow users to insert new brushes similar to the procreate app. That way we can completely customize our notebooks with calligraphy and other word art.

  19. It's not currently possible to go back to the document view without opening a document from the library. Maybe, we can hace a button for it.
