  2. Make the pen sizes a lot larger so we can fill something in faster or draw larger text epically for note book covers, titles, etc.

  3. Similar to on Microsoft word, when placing an around text, the text should have an option to automatically wrap around the image in different ways.

  4. Ich nutzte das Tool viel um Plakate für eine Ausbildung zu gestalten. Für mich wäre es extrem Hilfreich wenn eine Funktion Keilstift hinzugefügt würde.

    Danke

  5. Using the IOS 15 native OCR function to improve the search efficiency, you can identify the content of the scanned version of the text when establishing a text index, which will make the software more efficient.I don't know if IOS has open this API.

  6. Clicking the toolbar in the GN5 Mac app expands the window to large view, and clicking again returns it to standard size.

    Basically, quickening the time it takes to widen the GN view WITHOUT actually going into FULL SCREEN mode.

    Should be a quick fix.

  7. when i tried to upload my notes and folders ..... on One drive as PDFs

    i tried to download them again on Good notes

    i found the PDFs annotations are constant and cannot be edited again

    on the other hand, i tried to do the same manually on some files and repeated

    the process and found the annotations editable, but it would take very much

    time to do this on every file in every folder.

  9. It would be very helpful if you add hyperlink and adding shortcuts for the same folder or notes to easily navigate in the app
    and to make many shortcuts of the same notes and put them to different folders

  12. I would love to have a template that would aid me in script practice, personally I would love for it to be Spencerian Script template, but any script template would be good for practice.

  13. When writing one often uses lined/grid paper. However, when printing it would be useful if the background is a plain white paper. It would be really useful if one could change the paper template of all pages at once and not only individual pages.

  14. Allow the ability to reformat/re-color text via simply highlighting with a tool (similar to highlighter) rather than having to lasso and change the color.

  15. Have a up/down and left/right button for scrolling between pages so that I don’t have to swipe. Easier to switch pages and let it align perfectly every time.

  16. I don’t need you to tell me I’ve pasted a page successfully. I’m not blind. Just let me do whatever I need to do and don’t force me to stare at that stupid check mark for 2 seconds every single time.

  17. There are many proposals for hyperlinks between pages within a notebook or between pages in different notebooks.

    This augments that idea with backlinks, such that each time a hyperlink is created from page A to page B, a backlink is implicitly created from page B to page A - so that it is easy to navigate back, as is currently available in Notion and Roam Research.

  18. I have been using goodnotes for almost three years now. One thing I feel is lacking from GoodNotes is the functionality of cross-platforms compatibility. One note has a chrome browser extension for web grab which adds the web to your notes directly. I think it would be super useful for goodnotes class notes taking

  19. Like to be able to change the colours for goodnotes and having only 3 options for the colours with one usually being black is quite restrictive and changing it every time can be tedious. Would be very nice if we could have more pen colour options on the toolbar. Thanks for considering my idea!

  20. I have shaky hands, and while the straight line feature on the highlighter is helpful, it would be awesome to have the option to change the highlighter color when you select text (i.e, like you would do when you go to copy it to clipboard). You can use the lasso tool to select it after highlighting it, but that is a pain lol.
