Indesign Fussnoten

Hi,
ich arbeite in InDesign 2025 und möchte bei einem 3-spaltigen Layout die Fussnoten spaltenübergreifen (also über die ganze Satzspiegelbreite) darstellen. Diese Funktion lässt sich ja auch aktivieren über die Textrahmenoptionen und außerdem in den Einstellungen zu den Dokumentenfußnoten. Leider klappt es bei mir trotzdem nicht. Die Fußnoten werden immer nur in die betreffende Spalte eingefügt.
Könnte mir da jemand helfen?
Danke!

Hi @11597275 questions,

 

Adding to expert's suggestion, could you please share the exact version of InDesign 2025 you're using, along with your OS details? I tested this on my end, and the 'Span Footnotes Across Columns' option seems to be working as expected. It would help if you could drop a couple of screenshots showing your current footnote settings and how the footnotes appear on your page, so I can check this more closely.

 

Looking forward to your update.

Abhishek

Guten tag, Vielefragen

Are you saying that Type > Document Footnote Options > Layout > Span Footnotes Across Columns doesn't work?

How are you building your columns? As one textframe or as multiple textframes?
