Since this thread has become quite long and covers multiple ideas, it’s difficult to address each one specifically or evaluate which topics are most urgent. For now, we’ll close this thread to help keep the forum organized.
If you have multiple ideas and want them to be actionable, we recommend sharing them in separate threads: 1 feature request = 1 thread. This makes it easier for others to vote, check if an idea has already been submitted, and helps us identify which ideas are most important to you.
Once a feature goes live, we’ll update the thread and you’ll receive an email notification from the portal promptly.
We look forward to hearing your ideas!

Ability to rotate the page in order to write at an angle.
I learned to write with a slight angle as it makes handwriting look better. I would like to be able to tilt my page instead of my device.

Changing the pen type and color afterwards
It would be great if you could change the pen type and the color you wrote in afterwards. This makes it easier to adjust so that a document is clearer, or so that you can read it better when you print it out.

Collaborative editing
It would be great to be able to work together on a notebook, document or memo. This makes it easier in school and university to write down the content of a group work, because everyone can work on the document. So once everyone can participate and secondly, afterwards everyone has the document, so you don't have to upload it somewhere else to share.

A shape tool should be added just like the one in the iPad. (When you hold at the end of the stroke it crates the shape)

Drawn Shape Templates: Custom Element
We need the ability to make shape templates, science professionals and educators like myself are constantly drawing geometric shapes like benzene rings, carbon chains, orbitals, reaction arrows, mechanism arrows, and some really complex molecules and structures. If we could draw it once, and save the shape to use again later so that we don't have to redraw from them scratch everytime.

We are excited to announce that the Custom Element feature is live.
Users can use the lasso tool to "add elements" and create element collections.

[BETA] Web Sharing: Bug: Firefox on Windows does not show text, only pen marks
I am not yet part of the GoodNotes on Windows beta. This is just in regards to the beta websharing option.
I created a new notebook to see if it would work for my upcoming Inorganic Chemistry lab. One thing I noticed right away is that the text blocks were not showing up in my browser, but the handwritten (not converted) blocks were.
I tried refreshing the browser, and that did not help.
Interestingly, the text blocks do show up in the thumbnails.
(Also note: I tried turning off AdGuard and that did not help.)I tried switching to Chrome…
2 votesThank you for your feedback! We've fixed this issue now. You should be able to view text on your notebook on Firefox browser. Please let us know if otherwise.
If you run into any other issues, we recommend using a Chromium based browser to view your notes.

Ability to add a different type of paper upon adding a new page
Currently, when adding a new page it duplicates the style from the page before. I would love to see something similar to the IOS Version, where you can either add a new page instantly or add a different type.
