            Bug ID: 124335
           Summary: option to make footnotes "contiguous"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: J22Gim at gmail.com

Description:
Footnotes in Writer are automatically inserted as new lines in the footnotes
area, which may look like this:
---
______
1. text of footnote nr1
2. text of another second footnote
3. text of still another one
4. etc you get the idea.
----
This can be quite inconvenient when using short footnotes because wastes a lot
of space. It would be much more efficient use of space if one could set
footnotes like this:
---
______
1. text of footnote nr1; 2. text of another second footnote; 3. text of still
another one; 4. etc you get the idea.
----
In my screen I went from 4 lines of text to 2 lines of text by using the
proposed arrangement.

To broad usability I suggest to offer setting a separator which could be
user-defined, for example "," or ";" or "|" or TAB or SPACE, a custom
character, etc. which would be placed between the footnotes.

There is a post which nicely explains this, unresolved for many
years:https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/58631/footnotes-continuing-on-the-same-line/
