(just clarifying the summary) thanks Gordo for the report
Reproduced. Win 7 Pro 64-bit Version: 5.0.0.0.alpha1+ (x64) Build ID: f0edb677f09ad338e22ac3b5d91497b4479e0b3c TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2015-04-27_01:54:20 Locale: fi_FI Ubuntu 15.04 64-bit OpenOffice.org 3.3.0 OOO330m20 (Build:9567)
If the first and only footnote you insert is to the last line then the footnote is not visible. No sequence of insert and undo is required. I just did the other stuff to demonstrate that it is visible in other instances.
@gordo: apologies - thanks for explaining
