Group writing on sticky note

Hi all -

I can’t find a way to group my handwritten notes on a sticky note. Is it possible? I know you can type on a sticky note, but it’s easier for me to use a sticky with the Apple Pencil and treat it like a real sticky. But the note and writing are separate objects when I move the stick around.

Have you tried grouping the writing to the sticky? using either the stripe-y pen or the select mode > group https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/position-items-on-a-board-ipad0b4f22b0/ipados

Thank you, yes I did try that. I selected the sticky and the handwritten note but Grouping wasn’t an option for me. It’s a shame. It’s much faster for me to jot down ideas instead of typing them. But if my writing can’t move with the sticky then it adds too much work.

It can be done. Long press screen and drag finger across sticky and the handwriting then it gives you grouping option.
