## FootnoteType enum


Specifies whether this is a footnote or an endnote.

```cpp
enum class FootnoteType
```

### Values

| Name | Value | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Footnote | 0 | The object is a footnote. |
| Endnote | 1 | The object is an endnote. |

## Remarks


Both footnotes and endnotes are represented by objects by the [Footnote](./) class. Use [FootnoteType](../footnote/get_footnotetype/) to distinguish between footnotes and endnotes.

## Examples



Shows how to reference text with a footnote and an endnote. 
```cpp
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>();
auto builder = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::DocumentBuilder>(doc);

// Insert some text and mark it with a footnote with the IsAuto property set to "true" by default,
// so the marker seen in the body text will be auto-numbered at "1",
// and the footnote will appear at the bottom of the page.
builder->Write(u"This text will be referenced by a footnote.");
builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote comment regarding referenced text.");

// Insert more text and mark it with an endnote with a custom reference mark,
// which will be used in place of the number "2" and set "IsAuto" to false.
builder->Write(u"This text will be referenced by an endnote.");
builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Endnote, u"Endnote comment regarding referenced text.", u"CustomMark");

// Footnotes always appear at the bottom of their referenced text,
// so this page break will not affect the footnote.
// On the other hand, endnotes are always at the end of the document
// so that this page break will push the endnote down to the next page.
builder->InsertBreak(BreakType::PageBreak);

doc->Save(get_ArtifactsDir() + u"DocumentBuilder.InsertFootnote.docx");
```


Shows how to insert and customize footnotes. 
```cpp
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>();
auto builder = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::DocumentBuilder>(doc);

// Add text, and reference it with a footnote. This footnote will place a small superscript reference
// mark after the text that it references and create an entry below the main body text at the bottom of the page.
// This entry will contain the footnote's reference mark and the reference text,
// which we will pass to the document builder's "InsertFootnote" method.
builder->Write(u"Main body text.");
System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::Notes::Footnote> footnote = builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote text.");

// If this property is set to "true", then our footnote's reference mark
// will be its index among all the section's footnotes.
// This is the first footnote, so the reference mark will be "1".
ASSERT_TRUE(footnote->get_IsAuto());

// We can move the document builder inside the footnote to edit its reference text.
builder->MoveTo(footnote->get_FirstParagraph());
builder->Write(u" More text added by a DocumentBuilder.");
builder->MoveToDocumentEnd();

ASSERT_EQ(u"\u0002 Footnote text. More text added by a DocumentBuilder.", footnote->GetText().Trim());

builder->Write(u" More main body text.");
footnote = builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote text.");

// We can set a custom reference mark which the footnote will use instead of its index number.
footnote->set_ReferenceMark(u"RefMark");

ASSERT_FALSE(footnote->get_IsAuto());

// A bookmark with the "IsAuto" flag set to true will still show its real index
// even if previous bookmarks display custom reference marks, so this bookmark's reference mark will be a "3".
builder->Write(u" More main body text.");
footnote = builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote text.");

ASSERT_TRUE(footnote->get_IsAuto());

doc->Save(get_ArtifactsDir() + u"InlineStory.AddFootnote.docx");
```
