  1. When PDFs are uploaded, is it possible to show the outline of the documents? For example if a book is uploaded could we see links to the chapters? Thank you!

  2. When I write a letter or word, the word should be slightly neatened or smoothed up. The 's' should be curvier for example, without taking away from the look of the handwriting. One should have an option to determine how aggressive this smoothing is.

  3. It would be extremely useful to have the ability to change the pen size, this way if we are creating a title and we want it to be bold and big, we can do that or if we want our writing to look thicker, we will also be able to do that.

    To adjust sizes, you could ether have a like dot that you move left or right to increase/decrease size (example below)
    OR
    Have options for varied sizes e.g. 0.5 0.7 ....... (LIKE PEN SIZES IRL)

  4. Many of us use Goodnotes for language-learning. Please allow a mechanism that reads out the sound of the language, and has a dictionary function (preferably offline) so that we can read documents in other languages without that much hassle

  5. I'm trying to use shared notebooks with my students. Some of them have an iPad or Mac. Those that don't are unable to do more than read them. IThe children just love doing the homework I give them in GoodNotes! It's far superior to Google Docs! Thank you!

  10. Right now, when I use Good Notes on Windows and I open a notebook, the overview panel of the book is on the left side and doesn't go away under any circumstances. I'm talking about the ability to see the cover, and all the pages you've written at the same time, is open on the side of the app and doesn't close. This takes up some of the screen and you cannot write through it or around it really. I would like the ability to open and close that just like on the iOS version.

  11. I am using a surface go and it has a small screen about the size of a piece of paper. When I take handwritten notes I rotate the tablet and it turns the computer into tablet mode. In tablet mode, the section on the left, which displays the pages, is much too big and hides a good portion of the page. In landscape mode, laptop mode, I can see the full width of the page. I think the issue could be solved by minimizing this feature.

  14. I don't know if I understood sth. wrong, but in the Using Conditions, was written down that goodnotes (beta) has permission to use every Data, we use in the app. If thats correct, the it's ok for just the Beta thing. But it's not okay for the Endversion of the app... For example if you are working with a Script from Universitywith copyright, then this part of the using condition is a reason to not use goodnotes anymore... Same Problem for a University Professor who has to correct Student's Works...

  16. the current one performs HORRIBLY. why? because it's literally just a web app! i can't believe anyone in the team thought this was a good idea. remember, only because making a web app is easier doesn't mean that it's better.

    WinAppSDK offers so many benefits over a web app. efficiency and performance for example. stop trying to add more features instead of improving the actual app. using new features is a horrible experience when the app is literally not fun to use in any way.
