Steps to reproduce: 1. Open new Writer-Document 2. Click on Insert > Section > Columns. Select 2 Columns. Click on Insert. 3. Put the cursor into the created section. Click on Insert > Footnote/Endnote. Click OK. Current behavior:In the moment when you insert the footnote, the section grows to the size of one page instead of staying small.
