On the lower part it is possible to toggle between the two types of notes. With a right click on the footnote/endnote anchor → Footnote/Endnote we obtain To avoid the endnotes going on a new page without the possibility to add content after them it is necessary to select the document content and insert it on a section: on the Footnotes/Endnotes tab for the section settings it is possible to select for the endnotes "Collect at the end of section". What percentage of the text area is used by footnotes or the line that separates the main text from the notes must be configured on the corresponding page style The option "Continuation notice" helps in situations where long footnotes needs to be broken on more than one page: it is possible to assign on the corresponding boxes symbols that will be shown to indicate that the note continues on the next page or comes from the previous one. The option for the page style applies mainly for endnotes, because by default they are collected on a new page at the end of the document. Editing those styles it is possible to have complete control of the notes.

Under "Styles" it is possible to select which paragraph styles will use the notes and which character styles will use the numbering, both for the note anchor (Text Area) and for the actual number for the note (Footnote/Endnote Area). Writer recognizes a "chapter" as only the paragraph with a level 1 outline: if our "chapters" use a level 2 (because we used a level 1 for the "parts") then numbering the footnotes "by chapter" will not give the desired results.
