Align marginnote with text

Question

For marginnotes sized the same as the text, the first line of the marginnote is aligned on exactly the same height as the text line.

---

I however want the marginnotes to be \footnotesize and be sans-serif. Setting those specifications using

\renewcommand*{\marginfont}{\footnotesize\sffamily}

however leads to the first line of the marginnote not being at the same height as the text.

---

How can I align the first line of the marginnote with the line of text, i.e. have the Ut purus elit in the marginnote be exactly on the same line as the text on the left?

Answer 1

Add a \strut before going into \footnotesize.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{lipsum}

\usepackage[fulladjust]{marginnote}
\renewcommand*{\marginfont}{\strut\footnotesize\sffamily}

\begin{document}

\lipsum[1]\\\marginnote{\lipsum[1][2]}
\lipsum[1]

\end{document}
