Suppose all the attributes of an element are dynamic and we are unable to locate the element, in that case we select the anchor checkbox on the recording. The recorder prompts user to select a static element on the page (through which the dynamic element will be accessed) and then it prompts the user to select the dynamic element. It then creates a link between the two and thus locates the dynamic element.
