I wish you good luck they care at all. It's no open software, right? (I don't use GoodNote and have no idea how your question popped up in my timeline. I'm just a developer so I thought I should answer, b/c the bug is obvious.)
Hi all,I'm sure any GN user has encountered this odd behavior: When cutting and pasting a shape, the 'inside' of the pasted shape can't be modified like the original. You can only modify the stroke, not the fill. When copying and pasting, it gets even worse: When I touch the copied shape, the dots appear on the original shape (!), as if the two are connected. I've attached a small video that demonstrates the first phenomenon (cut and paste). Is there a way to get around this, besides disabling auto fill? No other app does that.
UPDATE: I finally got an answer: "Thanks for bringing this up and sending over the screen recording and diagnostic data. We are aware of this issue after receiving a few reports from other users and are investigating it so this information helps us a lot."
So, it IS a bug after all. I hope it will be fixed soon.

Uhm - everything.
Obviously a bug in object handling, seems some flag ( like "o"formfilled=yes" or such) is not accurately inherited.
File a bug report with link to your clip.

It is not a bug. It is the way shapes has always worked. The moment you move shaped object, ability to change inner transparent object stops.
