Can someone please tell me how to make a freaking anchor--please?

Thank you
Diane

I had the same question. In BlueVoda anchors are called bookmarks. Select Insert from the menu bar and you will see Bookmark

Insert/Bookmark
Place it where you need it.
Name it i.e., mystuff
Link would be:
http://www.yoursite.com/yourpage.html#mystuff
The # is mandatory to use.
You DO NOT add the # to the bookmark name.

This might help.

Is there supposed to be an icon that appears when I do insert/bookmark?
I don't see anything- what am I doing wrong?

Yes, a flag icon

I couldn't see it because I didn't drag the curser arrow to "open" the box with the flag.
I have to do that when adding text as well, but it doesn't seem like I used to have to - it just appeared as a box with blue handles and click to edit.
Got any ideas about why that has changed?
Thanks for the prompt reply! MUCH appreciated.

hmmm...with this on top of your text problem, I'm wondering if you shouldn't install a fresh BV download. Flag in box with blue handles is the way it's supposed to be.

Good idea and I did it. but it was only from 10.1 version to 10.12 and didn't seem to make any difference. when I stumble across the reason for having to drag the arrow to open inserts I'll let you know.
thanks again

Hi there,

I had the same problem myself.

Go to Tools > Options > and make sure the "use drag and drop to create new objects" is UNCHECKED.

Hope that helps

Now THAT'S a handy thing to know!!! Thank you!

Maybe this should get posted in a different thread where others might find it?
