When i gave my opinion on how often footnotes are used, this comes from my experience of working at a publishing house, reading over my father's published books, reading over my mom's academic papers, and finally the sample documents users sent in for the bug reports i did QA on. > From my experience I would expect that less then 20% of document has > foot/end notes.. Even if 20% of documents did have footnotes in them, that means 1 in 5 people use it, which still means it deserves an toolbar icon. > Under View > Toolbars there is the Insert one. Offers a great set of icons > for insert functions. I would expect that is the place to go. The main problem is that most users dont go beyond the toolbars that are presented to them, which means they will never see or enable the insert toolbar, which is why 92% of users goto the menu to insert a footnote, with only 5% go to the toolbar and 3% using the shortcut key. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
