Rnote: An Open-Source Drawing App for Notes and Annotation
|
||
|
======
|
||
|
|
||
|
**_Brief:_**_Rnote allows you to take notes, draw, and annotate documents. Sounds like you need it? Let us explore more._
|
||
|
|
||
|
We have featured numerous note-taking applications, but options that support handwritten notes are a handful.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rnote is one such helpful application that lets you take handwritten notes and annotate documents/pictures.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Of course, you need a drawing tablet or a setup with a stylus to use Rnote.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Rnote: Vector-based Drawing App for Sketching and Handwritten Notes
|
||
|

Rnote is an impressive open-source app written in Rust and GTK 4.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It provides an adaptive UI focused on stylus input. It looks pretty minimal and yet offers some of the essential features that one would need for handwritten notes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Let me highlight some of the things it can do.

### Features of Rnote
|
||
|
|
||
|
![rnote settings][3]
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Rnote][4] is a simple yet capable sketching/note-taking app. Some features include:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Supports pressure-sensitive stylus input with various stroke styles
|
||
|
- Add different shapes with the shape tool
|
||
|
- A selection tool to move, rotate, resize, and modify the content you add/draw.
|
||
|
- Document expand layouts
|
||
|
- Customizable page format
|
||
|
- Customizable background colors, patterns, and sizes
|
||
|
- Pen sound support for feedback
|
||
|
- Reconfigurable stylus button shortcuts
|
||
|
- Integrated workspace browser for quick media file access
|
||
|
- Drag and drop support
|
||
|
- Clipboard support
|
||
|
- Common page formats supported (A6, A5, US letter, etc)
|
||
|
- Import from PDF, bitmap, and SVG files.
|
||
|
- Native .rnote file to save/load documents.
|
||
|
- Export to SVG and PDF supported
|
||
|
- Autosave functionality
|
||
|
- Dark/Light mode
|
||
|
|
||
|
The developers note that the native file format used by Rnote may not be stable enough for compatibility between newer versions of the application.
|
||
|
|
||
|
So, it is best to export your work when you are done before upgrading Rnote to its latest version.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In addition to its features, you get a good user experience with the available options. It does not feel overwhelming, and you can access all the tools quickly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some customization is available to hide the scrollbars, change the cursor, and tweak the drawing cursor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can also adjust the time interval for autosave to kick in, which should come in handy for various use cases.

### Installing Rnote on Linux
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rnote is available as a Flatpak on [Flathub][6]. So, as long as you have [Flatpak enabled on your system][7], you can install it on any Linux distribution.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can find it in your software center (if Flatpak integration has been enabled) or type in the following command to get it installed:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
flatpak install flathub com.github.flxzt.rnote
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
### Wrapping Up
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rnote is actively developed and making good progress with its feature set. If you like Rnote, you might want to look at [Xournal++][9], another app that enables you to take handwritten notes.
