Re: Footnote color
Hi Lief - That's something I hadn't thought of trying. I'll have to see how insistent the client is on having a color on the footnote numbers. Thanks.

Hmmm. Yeah, I don’t know how you’d color just the number in the footnote itself, unless you want a hack way to do it. I could imagine that you could make the default Footnote paragraph tag the color that you want, then use a Character tag (called Black that is set to As-Is except for the color) to change the paragraph color back to black. Be sure there is a space at the end of your footnote that you do not select and include when applying your Character tag though. Like I said, it’s a bit of a hack, but does get you a colored number and black text in your footnotes. -Lief From: Roger Shuttleworth [mailto:rshuttlewo...@avbasesystems.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2010 9:01 AM To: Lief Erickson; Pat Christenson; Frame Users Subject: RE: Footnote color Hello Lief The issue is, though, that you can't access the footnote number alone, since it's not defined in the footnote paragraph format.
