and... how can i get it's number in the parent story? (i select a footnote, and i want to know if it's the 5'th, 10'th etc in it's parent story).

The index property does not work, because the "containing object" is the document, and if the document has more stories with more footnotes it gives wrong results.

 

indexnumberreadonlyThe index of the Footnote within its containing object.
