Description: Footnote numbering is restarted after a new heading when the footnotes are positioned at the end of the document, even when counting should be done per document and not per chapter. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add footnotes in a document with headings (style Heading 1) 2. Tools -> Footnotes and Endnotes -> Tab Footnotes: Counting "per document" and Position "End of document" Actual Results: Heading Text body1 Heading Text body1 1 Footnote 1 Footnote Expected Results: Heading Text body1 Heading Text body2 1 Footnote 2 Footnote Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: It works as expected when the footnotes are converted to endnotes. However, this is tedious because every footnote has to be converted manually. User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0
You wrote a clear bug, but you seem to have failed to: - search for existing bugs, both open and closed - test with new LO version, preferably daily master that will not mess with regular LO instalallation https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/ I guess it's a dupe of Bug 43370 solved in 5.3. Your 5.2 is old. You may install 5.3.7.2 or use PPA 5.3. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 43370 ***
