Ability to disable touch drawing or change touch sensitivity
I'm having a little issue with constantly having to undo because the slightest touch creates pen marks or drawings. It would be nice to have the touch sensitivity feature that iOS does because I currently use a Microsoft surface pen to draw and not my finger or another similar stylus. I know you can use 2 fingers to move the screen, but in the iOS version, it isn't necessary. I would love to see this update included!
34 votesHappy to announce that we've introduce a new toggle under advanced pen options to connect or disconnect stylus. This will ignore finger touch as drawing input when connected to stylus. Give it a try and let us know if it solves the issue that you faced.
Thank you for your feedback and keep em coming. We are actively monitoring this forum to know what to work on next.

Improving The Lasso select
It would be great if we can copy and paste the selected elements by lasso select. Also, there is something I didn't like about the lasso select which is that every time I enable it by the stylus button it stays on and if you want to change it you will have to select the pen or something else manually, and I think it should be off automatically like OneNote and other apps.
24 votesGoodNotes for Windows already provides support copy/paste objects. You can refer to this help article for more information: https://support.goodnotes.com/hc/en-us/articles/5898634781071-Using-the-Lasso-Tool
