Hi all,
this is something that has made me wonder: am I doing something wrong
here, or is this a bug with footnote placement? Run the attached
example, look at the last 2 pages, 5 and 6. On p. 5, the footnotes run
off the page area. On p. 6, why is there so much space between text area
and footnote area. The reason for this somewhat exotic set-up: our
publisher wanted the footnotes of the last page of every chapter to
start right after the text, not at the bottom of the page. In the end, I
told them I couldn't do it, and they were fine with it. But I still
think it should be possible; I've looked into a number of books, and it
seems a common layout in the humanities. Maybe someone has a bright
idea? (Wolfgang, you answered to this problem 2 weeks ago and suggested
having "aftersection={\setupnote[footnote][location=high]}" in
\setuphead, but this triggers the same problems). So maybe a bug?
All best
Thomas

yes, a side effect of having multiple note instances and not having
adapted the pagebuilder yet

Hans,
thanks, this looks a lot better! Nevertheless, one more question: with
the example I sent, the "high" setting for footnotes always begins on
the page preceding the paragraph where the
\setupnote[footnote][location=high] is put into the text. Is there a
rule which governs this behavior? Or: haw can I make sure it is indeed
applied to one page only?
Thanks, and best wishes
Thomas

TeX was still collecting material for page 5 when you set “high” for your footnotes.

currently not, so best put it at the end of the chapter and then do a \page
