LyX ⇒ Memoir class footnote number not indented

[clemens]

Hello,
I still have another question
I am using Lyx with TexLive and XeTex with the memoir book class.
I wold like to know if there was a way to set the style of the footnote (perhaps with commands in the document LaTex preamble) so that the number is not indented and perhaps have some space between number and footnote text.
Cheers

Section 17.1.2 (Styling, p. 307ff) of the memoir manual should give you enough information do get the desired result.


Best regards

Thank you very much
I tried looking at the Memoir documentation, which is really amazing but at my stage still very difficult. I can barely use Lyx with some commands copied and pasted from tutorials or forum posts
LaTex only instructions really confuse me since I don't know exactly where to put commands or how to make them work for the entire text.
By the way I was also trying to have the text in the table of contents justified and the same for the text on the page headers (chapter titles are a bit long and don't look nice in the header).
Cheers

In a web page I found as an advice to put in the preamble:
\usepackage[splitrule]{footmisc}

\addtolength{\footskip}{0.5cm}
\setlength{\footnotemargin}{0.3cm}
\setlength{\footnotesep}{0.4cm}

\makeatletter
\let\splitfootnoterule=\pagefootnoterule
\makeatother

but it gives me problems (two undefined control sequences)
I am attaching the example lyx file (extension name changed to tex to avoid forum filters)
