If you apply the SmoothScroll Action to the page, then any anchors (no matter how they were added) will be animated. The Action looks through the entire page for any anchor links, and applies the behavior to them. Which “rich” editor are you using in WebYep? That’s how you would add the anchors, and that’s where you have to look for the controls to add them.

If you created the anchor in WebYep (and no, I’ve no idea how you do that) then you would create an External link to that anchor in Freeway’s Hyperlink dialog. Just type in a # followed by the name or id of the anchor, like this:

#myanchor

An Anchor is just a reference to an element on the page. If you know the ID of a box on the page, you can anchor to it by using that ID as the text following the #. When you create an anchor in Freeway using the normal interface (not manually), Freeway constructs a link around the element, like this:

<a name="foo">This is the text that we're anchoring to</a>

In XHTML, it may use id instead of name, but they are functionally the same.

When you add an anchor in the normal manner, Freeway adds it to a list of possible targets in that page, so when you then link to that page in the normal way, Freeway presents you with those anchors as possible sub-page targets for the link. Any anchors you add within WebYep will be invisible to Freeway’s Hyperlink dialog, naturally, so you have to do it by hand.

But if you know what the anchor is named or id’d, you can link to it manually using the External tab of the Hyperlink dialog. If you’re linking from a different page, you would use the_page.html#theanchor as the URL. If you are linking from within the same page, then you can leave off everything except the name or id of the anchor, and just put #theanchor in the URL field on the External tab of the Hyperlink dialog.
