Anchor
Various IDA commands use an anchor. For example to select a portion of file to output or to specify a segment to move... you need an anchor. To drop the anchor, you can use the Alt-L key. Or, a more convenient way is the Shift-<arrow> combination. You can drop the anchor with the mouse also: simply click and drag.After you've dropped the anchor, you can move freely using arrows, etc. Any command that uses the anchor, raises it.
The anchored area is displayed with another color.
When you exit from IDA, the anchor value is lost.
