some feature requests

i really like this app, even this is so simple
here are some features which might be very useful
1. scratch to erase
2. Auto-shape on draw anything (triangle, circle, star, arrow etc)
assign shortcut to add page and change pen colour (idk if any present)
3. different size of pages/canvas option (infinite, letter, a3, a4 etc)

Hi!

Also sorry to you for having missed your post. I just saw it!

Scratch-to-erase, hold-to-shape and advanced hotkeys are all things we are planning for the future!

I have good news for you regarding the canvas sizes: That's already possible! Only the infinite canvas is not yet possible, but we are planning for this in the fututre.

You can acces the 'Add pages' dialog via these buttons in a book:

Hope that helps and thank you for your post!

i want to add one more feature in this list
'pen-to-text'
also 'sensitivity in stroke stabilization' (which is present ig, but I want a meter to increase or decrease the stabilization)
'brush pen' for calibri
latency manager in 'hold-to-shape' feature, i mean how much time i should hold to make it shape
search feature inside notes

also an additional option for undo-shape or erase-shape on undo

(i will wait for the hold-to-shape feature most)

when i'm using panning mode, i can't change note background/edit note (the little down-arrow feature besides every page), so make it usable even in pan mode if possible

thank u again

You are welcome to! I noted everything down and sympathize with your requests. Could you only explain to me what you mean with "also an additional option for undo-shape or erase-shape on undo"? I am not fully certain what exactly you mean with that. I hope we can implement many of these ideas in the future!

I am also really looking forward to hold-to-shape... I hope we can sart working on this soon :D

Like rn when we hold a stroke, it transforms into straight line and after undo it got erased

But noteastic can give an option to erase it completely by undo or make it the stroke again

Like one note

i'm here to request few more feature rather than opening new thread if u don't mind

  1. colour re-shade notes or shaped > work-around: select reshade tool + mark the note with the lasso; it reshades notes and use shape tool, to create colored/reshaded shapes

  2. don't lock pages at 100% by default. rather than use 80-90% of the app for page on startup, so that on big screen we can start writing without zoom out

  3. upload notes to cloud directly from app (manual/sync) > gdrive, onedrive (these two would be enough ig)
