    I originally set up my footnote separator as a tab, but would like to change it to an m space. When I tried it through the footnotes option panel, it wouldn’t change anything, so the I tried through find and replace.

    I’m able to find everything by typing: ~F.
    But can’t figure out what to type into the change to box.

    This seems like a simple fix but for some reason I can’t figure it out.

    Thanks,
    Michelle

    UPDATE:

    Since I’m not able to insert the GREP for a footnote in the change field, simply left it out and typed:

    Find field: .
    Change field: .~m

    However, clicking change all would also affect parts of my main copy. Is there any way to limit the find/change functionality to only footnotes?

    Thanks,
    Michelle

    As you used . as separator (!):

    So:

    Find: ~F\.\K
    or (I prefer): (?-s)^~F\.\K
    Replace by: ~m
