Hence they are longer than two or three lines. When I want to read footnote/endnotes, I normally hover the mouse over the footnote reference number, rather than going to the end of the page. When I do that, a popup box appears with the footnote/endnote appearing in it, generally in several short line. However, in OOo, this does not seem to work. It appears in one long line which exceeds the width of my screen. See http://www.warwick.ac.uk/~edrdh/images/OOo_footnote_problem.png for an image of the problem. As I said, my footnotes/endnote are big. I would like to read them without having to go the end of page/document back and fort for reading them. 25-35% of the width of screen size boxes with enough distances from the edges would work great. (MSWord outcome for the same behaviour can be seen here: http://www.warwick.ac.uk/~edrdh/images/Intended_outcome.png I hope you will sort this out soon. Thanks in advance.

I have written afterwards that the problem still exists! Anyone interested in this issue? I think the problem is that the issue type is set to enhancement, when it was actually a *defect*! The feature is already there: When you hover your mouse over the footnote reference, footnote text appears but the display of the footnote is defective! Maybe then will someone notice this problem! ps. Since my first submission, I have changed location. As a result, the links are not there anymore. When I have a chance, will submit new images.
