![]() I just wanted to provide some of my input to how I believe pen input can be implemented into a notetaking app that is primarily text-based - ala Anytype. It’s a testament to the value and importance that Anytype already has to me, despite being in alpha! I’ve just purchased a new iPad, and I’ve been taking handwritten notes, when appropriate, in GoodNotes and importing the PDF into Anytype after finalization. Though, it would make it difficult to switch to another note-taking application. This would require recording pen strokes in another file and overlaying them on the page. Treating the pages differently, as in anything you type can be exported with Markdown but it also allows you to draw anywhere on the page, even if what you draw overlaps with something else.I am not familiar with export options for it but they can be exported with the handwritten notes as images so that pages can be easily transfered to other apps or as Anytype’s own file format to be imported to another Anytype instance. A neat feature would be to allow the users to adjust/resize what is previewed and try not to fit everything in a small image. It can be stored like an image file, with a preview I can click on, which would open the canvas again. Opening up a blank, infinite canvas with pen options when I use my stylus and letting me draw/write whatever I want on that page.I want to sketch a small diagram quickly, for example, I cannot do it by turning a line into a handwritten note. If they were to implement such a feature, then it would not be limited to handwritten notes. Plus, there is a lot more to a stylus than handwritten notes. Sure, there could be an option to turn a line into a handwritten note but it would not allow you to type in that line. but it simply would not work with handwritten notes. Though, if what you are looking for is having typed text and your handwriting together, how do you think it can be achieved? Currently you can turn a line into a text/header/list etc. Goodnotes supports this drag and drop feature and this is how you can use it to convert your handwriting to text -Īfter converting your text using the app’s ‘Lasso Tool’, instead of copy pasting it, you can drag it by keeping your finger on the encircled text and moving it to any direction to start the dragging gesture.How is it going to work on a line based app? If what you are talking about is simply writing whatever you wanted to type, then keyboards can do that, they can convert your handwriting to characters. Today, it has made the iPad a multi-faceted powerhouse capable of performing many shortcuts that allows you to work better and faster. Converting handwriting by using the drag toolĭrag and drop was one of the most sought after features in iOS products till its final release in 2019.Then just paste your text and voila! There you have it. Next, long press on the page till the ‘paste’ option appears. You will now find that your handwriting has been converted to text however, in order to do so on another app, tap the ‘share’ button in the upper right corner and then copy the text. Next, tap on the ‘selection icon’ and choose ‘convert’. ![]() After doing so, encircle the handwritten text that you want to convert. In order to convert your handwriting to text, select the ‘lasso tool’ from the toolbar. ![]() Although, Goodnotes is not built for typed text and is primarily an app designed for taking handwritten notes, via an ipencil, it does allow for its users to convert their handwriting into text and this how they can do it. ![]()
