Hi All,
In my standard formatted Document there appears a 5cm line right above
the footnotes. How can I change this line? (Instead of 5cm my
professors asks for 3cm)
Thx for your help, Gerrit

In Normal view click on Insert | Reference | Footnote. On the Footnote
Toolbar use the dropdown arrow and select the line. It sounds as if you have
a continuation line rather than a footnote reference line. I hope this is
helpful to you.

You can't change it, but you can replace it.

1. In Normal view, View | Footnotes.

2. In the dropdown list box on the Footnotes toolbar, choose Footnote
Separator.

3. Delete the existing separator and create your own using underlines, em
dashes, a paragraph border, etc.
