GoodNotes
Remove the background of an image by making it transparent
I’d love to be able to make the background of diagram images transparent within GoodNotes. I like how this is action performed using an app called MagicEraser, as demonstrated in this video:

This feature would be very useful, especially when using dark paper.
I wish to skip the step of using a different app just to make the background transparent. I constantly need to give my images a transparent background and I really want a faster way to do it. That’s why I would love for GoodNotes to have features like those in the MagicEraser app.
Thank you!

I totally agree that digital stickers in Goodnotes should have a feature to make them transparent especially for those that have purchased it. Certain features should be made available with the purchase.

There’s a good amount of people (like me) that want to turn their notes into high-fidelity images and I’m sure there are other uses for this. This is very important!

Hey! On an Ipad, just take the photos first with the normal Camera, then view the Photo and hold on the Object. It will loosen itself from the image and you can easily drag it into Goodnotes. Works great for me.

i’m an interior designer and basically could use goodnotes for my ENTIRE client organization if it had this feature. it would replace powerpoint or pages for me because all i really need is background removal. it allows me to sketch and organize client file folders (including portfolios, sketches, architectural plans, elevations, mood boards all in one place visually.

Fully agree!! I would say this is pretty critical, especially when it comes to pasting graphs onto a page. Overall, more image editing capabilities like this please!!!
