Anchor functions

Post by VictorParkerPIM »

In Notes:
When focus is not on a note and you want to use an anchor why do you have to put focus on any note before the Anchor menu will drop down?
One other question about anchors, when an anchor is selected in the menu, why does it not go to the selection without having to click "Go To"?
Seems it should have an Edit function for the other selections.

To insert an anchor, there needs to be a cursor position within the note text, just as when inserting an image or other content into a note. If no note is active and there is no cursor position, EPIM doesn't know where the anchor should be inserted. Selecting an anchor in the list only highlights it, this is intentional as it allows you to edit the anchor's name or change your selection before navigating.

The idea here is to go to one that's already made.

This is working in v26.5 RC2. It's a handy way to navigate when you have been working in multiple notes and want to resume at a particular position in each. You still have to select an anchor and then click the "Go to" button, but that's minor. Nice suggestion, VictorParker.

DG,
I'm glad you like the feature, but I think you missed one thing.
Double click the Anchor name to skip the "Go to" button.
