When i gave my opinion on how often footnotes are used, this comes from my experience of working at a publishing house, reading over my father's published books, reading over my mom's academic papers, and finally the sample documents users sent in for the bug reports i did QA on. > From my experience I would expect that less then 20% of document has > foot/end notes.. Even if 20% of documents did have footnotes in them, that means 1 in 5 people use it, which still means it deserves an toolbar icon. > Under View > Toolbars there is the Insert one.

The main problem is that most users dont go beyond the toolbars that are presented to them, which means they will never see or enable the insert toolbar, which is why 92% of users goto the menu to insert a footnote, with only 5% go to the toolbar and 3% using the shortcut key. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Hi Cor, Yes the ranking of 6th place means that its the sixth most added element into a document. Here is the ranking of inserted elements and their main place of activation. 1) Table (84% from toolbar) 2) Image (86% from menu) 3) Symbol (95% from menu) 4) Insert Break (99% from keyboard) 5) Line (99% from toolbar) 6) Insert Footnote/Endnote (98% from menu) Most documents of any kind will footnotes in it, including books, guides, reports, wiki pages, etc. It is the number 1 used reference/cross-linking element. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
