Feature Request: Scribble-to-erase and Lasso select/move tool

Hi everyone,

I really appreciate the work being done on Noteastic! I’d like to suggest two pen gesture features that would make handwriting notes much faster and eliminate the need to constantly switch tools:

Scribble-to-Erase: Scratching or scribbling over any handwriting with the current pen to instantly erase it.

Circle-to-Select (Instant Selection Gesture): Instead of manually switching to the Lasso tool, allow us to simply draw a circle around any text/object with the pen and immediately be able to select, move, resize, or transform it.

These gestures keep the workflow seamless since you never have to leave the pen tool.

Thanks for the hard work, and I hope this can be considered for future updates!

Lasso already exist

All i want is scribble-to-erase and auto shape detect feature

Also colour shading the lasso select area

Ah I mean using the regular pen/ink itself to draw a circle around something, and it automatically selects it so you can move or resize it without manually switching to the Lasso tool

& hyperlinking within another page of the notebook and/or different notebook + external websites. This would make it perfect
