Make the page auto advance as I write
When writing while zoomed on GN2, I would like the screen to automatically advance to the right when I reach the screen's edge. Sliding and zooming and panning when I am trying to write at normal speed is tedious to the point of being painful. Thanks for considering.

Continuous vertical scrolling (continuous page mode)
It would be nice to be able to start writing on the next page while still viewing the bottom of the previous page.
1,175 votesThis is something we're investigating while designing the Squid10 note editor.
As mentioned previously, this is challenging since notes in Squid can contain both fixed and infinite sized pages, but we have some ideas to make this work that we will be exploring.

Zoom window for writing
Like in "good notes" for iPad, you could insert a zoom window witch allows you to write easier and faster. The good notes website describes it as followed:
GoodNotes provides the zoom window to assist you to write in small size with your fingers or with capacitive styluses. Inside the zoom window contains a zoomed view corresponding to a rectangular area on a page.347 votesThis is something we're investigating while designing the Squid10 note editor.

Add option to completely disable touch input on the writing area
Other programs (like write) offer the ability to turn on an option to reject all touch input not from the pen (including any zoom). I notice that when I put my hand on the page to write the program constantly recognizes my meaty paw as fingers trying to zoom (even though I disabled zooming in options). I would like this ability to prevent the page from moving around when I am trying to write.

Insert audio recording and playback
I like to record lectures as they are given and have several solutions for doing so. I'd love to see it as a unified function in a single app, and Papyrus is seriously one of my favorites. :)

Add layer support
I'd like to use layers for 1) sketching things first, then finalizing on another layer 2) changing the order of layers 3) hiding and unhiding elements for presentations and different scenarios. See Sketchbook or Photoshop for reference.

Snap To
I am loving the addition of the drawing tools. Thank-you. A natural progression would be to add a "Snap To" function to enable users to snap objects to the grid (graph paper) or objects to other objects.

Add brush styles and opacity : it allows for highlight, pressure pen, neon, embossed, spiderweb...
It would be nice to get more brush styles. The pressure sensitive option would be one possible style. Highlighting would be another one. In FreeNote, there is also the spiderweb, the neon and the embossed brushes that are very interesting.

create objects and save to personal library
I create diagrams to tell a story, but there are tons objects I draw and constantly have to redraw them... (I'm not referring in the moment, I can use duplicating for that..)
ei... If i draw a laptop or a stick figure with a certain expression one day , and in a week use those drawings again, I would love to be able to insert what I already drew in the past...
Logistics; draw an object, select object, save to a library, to a specific category I created, when drawing be able to insert a drawing from my library

More realistic curves
When I try to do any curve, for example for make a signature, in fact, when you look any curve, they are a lot of small straight lines, and it looks like a very "electronic" writing.
Is it possible to improve the curves?
By the way, good job man, the idea and the development. +126 votes -
Have a left-handed mode. Have the back tab in the top left corner, to the right of the "Papyrus" title and right justify on the title bar.
The problem is that the left hand rests on the screen and might touch the back button at the top left of the page when writing at the top of the page. Leave the top left of the title bar blank or inactive for left handers, and move all the active tabs to the right of the title bar so that lefties can write close to the top of the page without accidently closing the page .

Insert/Remove vertical space
When I take notes I frequently need to go back later to insert additional material at a specific place. It would therefore be very important to have the ability to create such space by moving all material below further down. You can find this well implemented in the Microsoft Journal software, for example, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IE/windows-vista/Format-a-Journal-note

Make a Clipboard History, so you may use a variety of your own shapes (i.e. Greek letters in math) regularly throughout note taking
In subjects such as math, physics, engineering, biology or other sciences, many symbols and variables with subscripts / superscripts are constantly used and repeated. I find myself using the Duplicate Selection feature

See total number of pages
I miss that I can't see how many pages a note have. Now I must check on the arrow all the time. If it said 1(2) then I would know I have two pages and I became happy!

Fast scrolling
I often want to look back through earlier parts of my note. This is currently slow. Perhaps cached images could be used to make scrolling fast.
