when a single line footnote is used, the footnote divider is rendered in larger distance than for footnotes with two or more lines (I mean a gap between the line and the footnote text).
It can be tested easily:
\chapter{Chapter}Foo\footnote{Bar}. \chapter{Chapter}Foo\footnote{Bar
Bar}.
This behaviour seems to be driven by this code in strc-not.mkvi: \unexpanded\def\normalnoterule {\ifvmode \dontleavehmode \blackrule [\c!color=\noteparameter\c!rulecolor, \c!width=.2\hsize, \c!height=\noteparameter\c!rulethickness, \c!depth=\zeropoint]% \endgraf \kern\strutdepth \fi} When e.g. \endgraf or \kern\strutdepth lines are commented, the gap is smaller, but still different. Changing the depth from \zeropoint to a bigger value (1cm) makes the gap same, but it leads to extreme thick rule. What else could be tweaked here? Thnaks, Jan
