It would be very useful to be able to link to an anchor link in a page. This would increase the power to reference anything in a page, not only a record in a table.

I agree! For the moment I’m using this trick, but it’s not flawless as @Filmos describes nicely.
Thank you for sharing the trick.
Would it be possible to bump this feature request? I couldn’t figure out the linked trick by @anon41554251 and there are lots of related posts linked on that one.
Anchor support seems buggy/unsupported which is a real shame because coda docs have anchors on nearly all lines, so it would be great to take advantage of them.
It seems that within docs, anchor links are just converted to doc links and don’t work as expected.
It would be especially useful to be able to use anchors and have them work in published docs. For example I have a long research write up and making section links is important but currently not possible.
Bumping. I can’t figure out if this is a bug or is this simply not a feature, can somebody clarify if copy anchor link should work on published docs or not?
To my knowledge, anchor links only work for headers and tables. We just launched the header functionality last month (more on this here: Launched: Copy an anchor link).
Like they said before, table row anchors only scroll down to the general area and are not as reliable, but anchors for table locations and header locations (font sizes H1-3) should work as expected. Anything else we’re processing as feature requests, as we haven’t been able to launch that functionality just yet.
Does this answer your question?
Anchor links work also for paragraphs and even images, currently there is only one issue:
If the anchor link is located above the anchor, then the page does not jump to the correct position: the anchor is finally not positioned on top of the window as expected, but at the bottom.
If the anchor link is located somewhere on a page below the anchor, the page jumps to the correct position after clicking the link: the final position of the anchor is on top of the window.
