Hello list members,

Please bear with me as I'm a newcomer to LyX.

Here's the issue: I have a footnote which has disappeared--or, in other words,
which is not showing up with the other footnotes at the bottom of the page--and
I have no idea how to get it back.

Here's the context: I'm using the Koma-script book class (LyX 2.0.6 on Mac OS X
10.7) and this is happening in the Bibliography. I have appendices, then the
Bibliography. The Bibliography has different sections. It begins with a
"\setbibpreamble" command, followed by a "minisec" section title which
introduces the first set of references. Later come a few "\breakBibliograpy"
commands, each followed by "minisec" section titles to introduce the other
sections of the bibliography. So far, so good. However, the first "minisec"
title, immediately following the "\setbibpreamble" command,  has a footnote
reference mark at the end, and should have a corresponding footnote at the
bottom of the page. The footnote mark gets printed in the PDF output, but the
footnote does not--it goes AWOL.

I've tried to add the "\protect" command (in ERT) before the problematic
footnote in the heading, but it makes no difference. I've also read through the
"footmisc" package documentation, and I've added "\usepackage[stable]{footmisc}"
to the preamble. The "stable" option is supposed to deal with footnote hassles
in headings, but here it makes no difference.

I just can't figure out what's going on. It seems to be related to the first
"minisec" title in the bibliography preamble. I've placed test footnotes at the
end of the 2nd & 3rd "minisec" titles later in the Bibliography, and they get
printed as normal. It's the first that is going AWOL.

So, just to be clear: This is really a LaTeX question. It's possible someone here will know the answer, since there are plenty of people here with LaTeX knowledge. But it's also possible (indeed, likely) that no-one here has ever tried this combination of things, and so that no-one here has any relevant information.

All of which is by way of saying you might try somewhere else if you don't get any help here: Stack Exchange, or the comp.text.tex usenet group (which is very active).

My guess would be that there's some incompatibility between the various things you are trying to use. But how to remedy it? No idea.
