How to check for text overflow inside footnotes

Hi all. How do I get the overflowed text inside a footnote. It seems that the Textframe.Overflow property doesn't work when the over set text is inside a footnote. (A triangular shape with a red circle inside appears at the end of the footnote, but I don't know how to get this value in scripting).
Please help!!

Thanks

Check the parentTextFrames length of the last character of the last
footnote in your text frame. If it's 0, your footnote is overset.
