Add a Highlight Tool that selects text as opposed to free draw... and one that doesn't fade the text being highlighted!
Can you add a highlighter tool that recognizes/selects text and isn't just a random draw tool?
Also, the current highlighter tool results in fading of the text that is being highlighted! Can you create a highlight tool similar to Adobe, where the text doesn't fade when highlighting?
Otherwise, great app!

Add "wrist check" or palm guard
I often write with a stylus, but I rest my hand on the screen. Can you add a wrist check/palm guard feature please?

View whole page while scrolling
As opposed to seeing a checkerboard until the scrolling stops. I imagine it's a processing issue to load that much at once, but even seeing a blurry image of my work will speed up navigation around the document.

Create table of content for large imported pdf documents.
It would be really time saving if large pdf documents had a table of content like most pdf readers do. Having to scroll page by page to get to page 2000 of a 3000 page pdf document is not really fun... and imagine you had to then return to page 500... argh!

Eyedropper tool to pick up colors from the canvas/page
I would love an eyedropper tool to pick up a color that I used before on the page, because the recently used colors are limited to 12 most recent, and I usually use many more colors at a time.
Papyrus already feels so smooth to use as a drawing tool, and just the addition of an eyedropper tool would really complete it for me.

Create a new tool to insert sticky notes like in Adobe Acrobat Reader
My teachers give me slides in PDF and I don't have sufficient space to write notes. We could do a lot of comments in small spaces with this tool. First, it could be like sticky notes in Adobe Acrobat where only typing it's possible. Later, you could improve this tool doing also possible draw on the sticky note.
Thank you.

Infinite page layout with option of vertical only scroll or horizontal only scroll
I want to just keep writing fast and scrolling down but not have to think about text alignment or that my paragraphs are skewing to the left or right. A "lock margins" option would be nice.

Improve handwriting experience for passive stylus users
The handwriting for passive stylus users could be improved, as other note taking apps, e.g. Inkredible, Note Anytime, etc. have demonstrated. Papyrus has a much better UI overall, but perhaps a velocity/direction dependent pen tool could work well for passive stylus users?

Scroll button or auto scrolling
when you want to take notes and really make use of the size of the page you have to scroll either to the right or down to get more paper. This is quite annoying because you always have to lift your hand then swype and start writing again. It would be useful to add a navigation to do this either automatically or through a button. The button should have the option to scroll either to the right or down. When the button could move one page size (=size of the current view) in the chosen direction this would be awesome.

Add time stamps
A day planner option. Or the option to have pages with dates listed on them. Even a time stamp option would be great.

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.
1,206 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.353 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.
