Thanks a lot,

I was looking in wrong places: changing the default object style did not occure to me (while at hingsight it is kind of logical…)- and  I did not even know how to make it default. So this is a solution I would be searching for a LONG TIME…

Thank Martin for trying to recreate the problem.  Just to check if I am not doing something completely wrong:

I am using Keep line Together at start/end of Paragraph start set to 2 end 2 as well.

This setting however, allows splitting of footnotes so that I get a SINGLE WORD on a new line overflow to the next page!

When I up the limitts to 3 lines, it correctly keeps the footnote together.

And similarly if I specify “all lines in paragraph” it works.

I always thought that 2 lines together is the correct setting to get at least one full line and a fraction together.

It does not work for my instalation.  I am using CS4 version 6,04.
