Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Footnote page space (Writer)

Hi :)
Lol, a classic!  You could probably do it with text-boxes in Draw but that would 
make it a lot more complicated for no really good reason.  What is the 
paper-size set at?  Are you usign 

Format - Page
to set the margins, paper-size and footer size?
Regards from
Tom :)

This obviously really caught the general interest... Not.

I've looked a little further, and it seems to be a fixed limit, 9.99 
cm maximum space for footnotes, despite the default option when 
suggests most of the page could be available.

I tried changing the display units to inches, in case the spinner in 
the "footnote space" dialogue was just limited to one digit before 
the decimal place and two after it, but no, when the inch is the unit 
of display the maximum space that can be set for footnotes is three 
point something, which looks suspiciously like 9.99 centimetres.

This isn't very good.  I don't mind it not suppling what I want, it 
is after all a little unusual (I'm trying to mimic the layout of the 
nineteenth century book that the text comes from), but LO suggests 
that it will do what I want while clear refusing to do it. :-(
