            Bug ID: 136563
           Summary: Word Count On Selected/Highlighted Text Does Not
                    Include Footnote Words
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: andrew.j.debney at gmail.com

The Wordcount shows all words within a Writer document, including all words
within Footnotes. But if I select a section of text that has a Footnote, the
word count for the selected text does not include the Footnote words.

I am currently doing a Theology Degree and my college is validated by
Manchester Uni which directs that an essay word count include Footnote words
but not the title page or bibliography. So to find out how many words are in
the essay part I have to find the word count for the title page and
bibliography separately and deduct that from the document total.

This seems like an error where the footnote words are not included in the word
count of selected text.
