Horizontal Line in Portrait footer cannot be changed next page in landscape
I have a large document switching several times between portrait and landscape.
I have a horizontal line inside the footer in my portrait format which remains the same in the landscape footer, which is obviously not long enough. I can also not change that manually |

Which kind of line have you inserted?
In this case, the easiest solution will be to make use of a top or bottom border to the paragraph in the header. The length of the border will adjust to the width of the paragraph itself.

That line is likely a border in the paragraph formatting of the footer.

Assuming that the border is applied to the paragraph (as paragraph formatting), it should adjust.
Unlinking footers should only be necessary if the line was created in a different way, for example if it is a graphic object.

You are correct. I was thinking that because you are changing paragraph formatting in the footer, if you do not unlink, the new formatting will apply to footers in the previous section(s). While that is true, the left and right indents are relative to the page margins which are adjusted to fit the new layout. |
