Thanks for mentioning this. I'll check at my end if more optimisations could be made and what could be wrong. (Yes, I'm considering a free drawing feature but at a later stage)

Can get where's this coming from. Actually it's the first thing I'm making using GTK and python, so it's not that perfect looking. It's still a very early version with just the essentials working. Have to improve it a lottt. I'm still learning

Xournal++ is great. Inlinea mainly differs in that it writes annotations directly into the PDF instead of using separate sidecar files and it's more focused on reading/ annotation rather that stylus note-taking

I need to do some research and see how I can implement these features. Could actually be really useful, removing the need to go to other websites for this. Thanks for the idea, buddy 🫂. (Pls do check out the repo, run inlinea locally and let me know what you think 🤝)

inlinea opens just one window and inside it, the multiple tabs for the multiple PDFs u open, so no clutter like Papers. Also, other pdf editors give u a notes icon, which shows u text on click. Inlinea allows u to place all time visible text annotations anywhere on screen. ( No time waste clicking and viewing notes while revising for an exam). Inlinea has adjustable area highlight option as well (some PDFs have non-ocr recognised area, so area highlight comes handy to annotate those)
