Hello,

When some footnotes are put in description terms, their number appears in the terms but their text don't appear at the bottom of the page. Is it a known limitation?

of boxed stuff, indeed, so we need to postpone and flush ....

Thanks, it works fine.

But as a side effect (not introduced by the patch) it seems that putting footnotes in a term sets a fixed width to this term: in the example the term wraps, even if I set width=broad in the description definition. If the term does not contain a footnote, it is not wrapped.

send me a test file showing both Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Here it is. The first and third description terms containing footnotes are wrapped. The second term does not contain footnote and is not wrapped (it's the file committed in contexttest).

it took me quitea while to find out that it's in the the description preroll which meant that the calculated width was too small and therefore the real thing wrapped \long\def\nododonote#1#2% {\doifnot{#1}{-} {\ifconditional\pagewisenotes \doifreferencefoundelse{\s!fnt:t:\internalfootreference} {\ifnum\currentrealreference>\lastnotepage\relax \globallet\lastnotepage\currentrealreference \resetnumber[\currentnote]% \fi} {}% \fi \incrementnumber[\currentnote]% \makesectionnumber[\currentnote]% \let\lastnotenumber\composedsectionnumber \dolastnotesymbol \decrementnumber[\currentnote]}} ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
