Hi Lon!

I'm on version 20240202024.003 (About -> App Info -> App version) and I don't see that. I only see the options in the image below.

This feature would be very useful. I'm experimenting converting from OneNote to Loop App and Loop pages for documentation. I don't want to go overboard and create Loop components for every linkable section. 😊

Thanks,

P.

Hi Sarah,

In our use case, it was from other pages, but you're right, it does not work like a typical HTML anchor hash. It does not work at all (scroll down/open window) when the link is shown as a preview. When shown as a link, it opens up a new window like you said. Would be great if it jumped like their TOC control.

From another page, it actually jumps to that section inside the same tab. Only from the same page does it look like an issue.

Hi. I do not have that button available in my right-click menu. Here is a screenshot of what i see. I am using Microsoft Edge (Version 121.0.2277.112), MacOS (Version 14.2.1 (23C71)).

The "Link" button adds a hyperlink. There is no "copy link to selection" you'll see in my screenshot i have the text highlighted that i right-clicked for this menu.
