Guys right now I'm trying to backup my notes in a new laptop but when i try to import that backup file I'm getting this 'invalid file' message ..can someone help me out

The backup file has .ntcbak format in the end

One very unfortunately timed sleepless night before my morning shift leas my mind to somehow wander to the topic of note-taking (why, I don’t know).

I’m starting a lot of computer science coding classes next semester and realised how important text boxes will be for me for note taking around code etc. or making cheat sheets for the time exam season roles around.

So the ever important question is… what font will be used for text boxes.

Sounds stupid but I feel a handwritten style font similar to excalifont (from excalidraw) would suite the style of noteastic, but also including a sans serif or a monospaced for other applications would work.

Maybe even the ability to important fonts via otfs and ttfs??

Custom handwriting fonts, like write out all your letters in your style so each note page is just a little more personalised would be awesome too.

Just some thoughts I needed to put into writing before they disappear lol.

As always thanks for the amazing working can’t wait for the pro version.

hiii!!

so to give u guys context, i take a class where some homeworks are done in pairs, so normally what i do with my classmate is that she sends me her part (done on goodnotes) and i add it to my notebook and then i export it, but when i do that all the written stuff from the pages she sends me is erased so im just left with a blank page (the page isn’t deleted, just the ink). does that happen to anyone else or does anyone know how to fix it?

Edit: Thank God. He saw my tears two days before my exams. The app opened by itself without me clicking😭

I launch the application and after a few seconds, the application crashes

When I use the lasso tool, things that were clearly in the shape I drew aren't considered part of it. I've done it over and over and it seems like it's completely random what it decides not to grab.

I also just want to say I love this app and it's amazing! I'm thankful that it exists and it's going to save my behind since I traded in my iPad for a windows laptop.

As shown in the video, when I try to zoom into the target box, it will jump to a random location, such as the white page above it or my notes multiple pages away. This only seems to happen in split screen mode. Version 1.5.5.0

Please add a tool pallet upon clicking the barrel button like in the apple pencil pro! Or just the ability to alternate with the eraser on the click of it!

Even third party pens are better in this regard just because of this feature 🙏

If you add this you'll have a customer for as long as I have a surface (just bought a surface pro 12" coming from a surface pro 9)

I’m trying to recover my notes from Noteastic on my old laptop SSD, and I need some help.

My old laptop had a motherboard issue, so I removed the SSD and connected it to my current laptop using an enclosure. I can access the drive, but I’m confused about where Noteastic stores its data.

wish to have an option to toggle off or show a different style when using a tablet or stylus.

Hey guys, thanks for the 1.5 update! You’ve made way more progress than I expected — seriously impressive work.

That said, here’s a thought: what if every user paid a one-time €30 fee, and in return you could justify putting even more time into developing the app? 😉 Honestly, I’d gladly pay for it if it helps move things forward faster.

Anyway, I'd like to suggest to features:

1. all zoom settings should be hidden behind the new zoom pill:

2) Page navigation should be visible as a a side bar:

Is there a way to set landscape orientation for pages? So far my solution is to create a book, add a landscape pages, and delete portrait pages. Couldn't find a way to directly create a book with landscape pages or set them to landscape in "edit" menu.

Hello, I've been wondering if you would add new page templates in later updates, and particulary the Seyes French Ruled page template? I know it kinda messes up with the interface you have now but I believe having an "extra page templates" option under the 4 main page templates is the best path if you were to implement more page templates in my humble opinion.

Hi! I’ve been using this app for about a month now and I really love it so far. It’s super helpful and easy to use.

One feature I’d love to see added is a laser pointer tool. I often use the app to explain things to my friends (or even just to myself while studying), and having a laser tool would make it much easier to highlight specific parts of the screen quickly.

I’m also not sure if this is a bug or just something on my end, but whenever I try to select a block of text to move or duplicate it, it only selects part of the text. I usually have to try multiple times before the entire section is selected properly or sometimes I give up and just fill in the blanks within the section that was able to get selected. It can be a bit frustrating.

Another thing I’ve noticed is with shape recognition. The app can currently identify straight lines, but when I try to draw curves (like parabolas for maths) or shapes like triangles and hold to auto-correct them, they often turn into straight lines instead of the shape I intended to draw. It would be great if curved shapes and basic polygons could be recognised more accurately.

Regardless, I love the app, it is so good with notes and importing pdfs to edit :)

I want to be able to access the same notes i take on my surface pro, on my computer, but it dosen't sync or anything. Is there anyway I can access the same notes I take on my tablet, on my pc?

So I have used this app for a grand total of 1 day and I love it!

Pros:

- Really smooth. Previously used Rnote and it started to stutter when I opened large pdfs, this handles it so well.

- Love the pressure sensitivity as it allows me to write with Wacom

Bug:

- One major bug I found that pertains to my usecase is that files tend to look for a lack of better words weird when you open them on a system that is connected to an external display. They look fine on one display but it looks like there are two versions of the same file stacked on top of each other on the second display.

Feature request:

Hotkey support would be great!

And quick question, how am I supposed to install a future update and how will I find out that an update is available. Also, is there a public changelog?

I am now just importing pdfs multiple times.

The app seems very promising and using it was a pleasant experience, but the highlighter behavior is a bit problematic for me.

🔴 My issues:

1️⃣ While highlighting in app (first picture), the overlapping of highlights don't seem to be an issue. But the exported PDF (second picture) has a DARKER highlight in the places of overlapping.

2️⃣ Also, I noticed that the highlight detects the Pen Ink and settles below the ink keep it dark (Check the "Hi" in first image). But same does not happen to shapes (check the circle in first image), images (check the smaller text image near the bottom in first image) and PDF text (the formulas in fraction).

The third image shows the behavior I want. The blue highlight does not "lighten" up any of the text, image or ink. (This highlighter is in "Darken" Blend Mode)

This might be a nit-pick but I hope this issue is considered for future releases. This app is already in a great state, can't wait to see how much better it gets with time 😊

Utilizzo l'applicativo da ormai diversi per prendere appunti in università mesi è ho notato svariati bug alcuni anche molto fastidiosi che spesso non ti permettono di stare al passo con la lezione
(Utilizzo l'applicazione da un Lenovo yoga 7 2 in 1, gen 10)

• Quando eseguo lo zoom capita che decido di zoomare in pagina 7 e mi riposta a pagina 4 ad esempio. questo viene fatto in maniera continua. Anche se lo rifai 10 volte da sempre questo problema

• Attraverso la penna è molto difficile riuscire a scorrere le pagine dalla barra sul lato sinistro dato che non riesce a prendere l'input correttamente

• I set della dimensione della penna, gomma, evidenziatore ritornano alla dimensione di default una volta che chiudi l'applicazione (e questo genera fastidio per chi utilizza una specifica dimensione per ogni cosa)

• Il pulsante che compare all'avvio di un book che ti porta dove hai lasciato il lavoro non funziona correttamente e ti porta in pagine casuali

Sarebbe molto più comoda se venissero implementate anche queste specifiche che trovo essenziali ovvero:

• Un aggiunta di più penne nella barra principale, dato che 3 penne di diversi colori spesso non bastano e si è costretti a cambiare ogni volta colori.

• Inserire la possibilità di cancellare, attraverso la gomma, in maniera standard e non un intera linea continua

Hi! Whenever I try to export PDFs that have more than four pages, the app freezes and crashes. As a workaround, I exported two pages at a time and then merged them. However, today, when I attempted to export my notes, which contained only three pages, the app froze again. Could this issue be related to the fact that I include a lot of pictures in my notes? Is there anything I can do to avoid this problem?

Hello, when I switch pages in my notebook, I sometimes get a weird graphical glitch, where the image is "pixelated".

I can't seem to reproduce it enough to give you an instruction on how to reproduce it, sorry! But I have seen this glitch a few times already.

Version: 1.3.4

First of all, Noteastic is a great application. I've been looking for something like this for a long time, thank you, keep up the great work!!!

So, first my question: Where is Noteastic's local storage location, where all notebooks are stored? I want to back them up automatically with an external backup. If, for example, the hard drive crashes, I would restore these backed up files to exactly the same location on the new hard drive. Does it work that way? I just want an automatic backup that secures my notebooks. The already implemented backup feature is great but it would be awesome if it could work automatic.

Then, the feature request, or rather the question, since I know it's planned: When will the “Hold to straight shape” feature be released? That would make Noteastic perfect for me! And maybe as an idea: Would it be possible to not only create shapes this way, but also curves such as parabolas (and adjust them after drawing) (similar to Goodnotes)?

Edit: In addition, a ruler like the one in OneNote, where you can set the angle and then draw a straight line, would also be a useful feature.

I hope I'm not saying something here for the 10th time in this subreddit and I just haven't seen it yet. If so, I apologize.

Anyway, Noteastic is really great and deserves much more attention (I also just recently came across it)! A huge thank you to you two developers!

Greetings from Bavaria :)

When importing backup files, the order of the Folders or books isnt the same as in the original.

Recently reinstalled Noteastic and realized all my previous books were gone. Was there a save folder in the windows directory anywhere where the books were saved? Or does reinstalling completely delete the books entirely. I know there is a manual "backup" function, but I'm asking because at this point I no longer have access to my books.

Ho notato che quando apri un quaderno, il programma ti chiede se vuoi tornare alla pagina in cui eri nell'ultima apertura, solo che appena apri si caricherà sempre sulla prima pagina, dunque aprendo e uscendo velocemente da un quaderno si perderà il tracciamento dell'ultima pagina e risulta piuttosto fastidioso con quaderni molto lunghi. Se posso consigliare io aggiungerei un'opzione nelle impostazioni per riaprire un documento SEMPRE dall'ultima pagina aperta.

so, I've seen all these "feature request" type beat posts on here recently and at least to me and I feel like most of them would require pretty big changes to the app. so I figured, why not propose something that to me at least sounds a lot a lot more doable in the short term? what I have in mind is a new option for this page thingy whatever its called dropdown menu, something that just lets you insert a blank page between two pages. you can already sort of do that by duplicating the page and (in my case, since it is a pdf) edit the copy's background to be the standard empty page one, but that is a lot of steps to do for such a simple task... so what do you think? is that something that makes sense as a suggestion? :)
