footnote numbering in different sections
Hi thanks for the advice. Been thinking about that but two thousand footnotes
make me think that there is hopefully a different solution

It's a bit tedious if you've got a lot of them, but you could just enter the
footnote numbers manually, using the numbers as the 'custom mark'.

Hi all,
I have a problem numbering the footnotes in various sections of my
document;
in some sections I need to start from 1 (got that) but in others I have to
continue from the last number of the previous section - and here's the
problem - it either seems to start from one or counting from the very
first
footnote. Here's an example
Section one
Chapter 1.
Footnote 1
Footnote 2
Section 2
Chapter 2.
Footnote 1
Footnote 2
Section 3
Chapter 2.1.
the footnote number should now continue with 3 (continuing from section
2/chapter 2.) but instead I either get 1 (restart after each section) or 5
(counting from the very first footnote in chapter 1)
I tried to set the "start at number" button on 3 but it doesn't work
somehow. I also need to define different sections because the different
chapters and sub-chapters have different headers.
Thank you all for your help!
