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. :-( Mark Stanton One small step for mankind... -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Are you usign Format - Page to set the margins, paper-size and footer size?
