Description gil.bates 2024-05-18 18:48:28 UTC
Description:
My footnotes are not displayed anymore. Only the line that precede them is visible above the footer.
This happen for any document I typed before
If I insert a new foot note, its number is given, but I must type it blindly without seeint it. Footnotes still exist and are visible with F5, but not visible anymore, even in print preview.
To modify my blind typing error, I had to open the document with OpenOffice, where all footnotes are visibles.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open a document containing foot notes or insert a new foot note, you can't see what you type
2.
3.

Actual Results:
No footnotes visible. Impossible to see what you type in a new one, impossible do modify them, impossible to see them in print preview.

Expected Results:
Footnotes available like before :)


Reproducible: Always

Please attach a sample file, reduce the size as much as possible without private information, and paste the information in Menu/Help/About LibreOffice, there is a copy icon.
