Footnote marginal and hang

Post by corderin »

Hi,

I am using footmisc package, but I don´t achieve what I am exactly looking for, this is:

1)A hang footnote body text, when a footnote has one more than line.
2)A footnotemargin separation of the whole footnote including mark.

I have only two options:
1)no hanging footnote, the second line of a multiline footnote body text starts left conpared to the first line.
2)no margin, this is the footnote body text is hanged but I can´t manage to become the marker together with the footnote but left aligned with the sidemargin of the page.

Could somebody give me a tip?

I´m using this code:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[norule,bottom,marginal]{footmisc}
\addtolength{\footskip}{0.1cm}
\setlength{\footnotemargin}{4.5em}
\setlength{\footnotesep}{0.1cm}
And I get the attached file, but I want the second line to be hanged with the first.

Using hang option, I get the other footnotes, which don´t look very pretty.

Isn´t there any \footnoteformat to change the format of the footnote paragraph, for endnotes there is such a command...

I would like to solve my problem, I have been trying for a long time, but I guess it is impossible to get the seconf line of a long footnote aligned with the first one, the only possibility is the hang option, but I can´t understand why this option flushs the marker with the sidemargin of the page...and not in front of the footnotetext...
