Issue:
You are working on long documents. You would like to have anchor tags like those on web sites so you can jump to specific sections of the same page or a different one.

Solution:

a. Open a Notes document in Edit mode.
b. Put the cursor next to the text/spot where you want the target anchor to go.
c. Under the Menu, choose Edit --> Copy As --> Anchor Link.
d. In the pop-up naming dialog, enter a short name for the anchor, click OK. You now have a box with a red dot that's your anchor.
Note: You cannot see the box when in read mode.
