This is related to How to Change the Color of the Footnoteline and Footnotemark Beneath within a Tikzpicture
Consider the code
\documentclass[12pt]{book}
\textwidth=5in \textheight=3.50in
\usepackage[sfdefault]{cabin}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\definecolor{bblue}{RGB}{33,41,88}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{decorations.pathmorphing}
\renewcommand{\thefootnote}{\fnsymbol{footnote}}
\let\ltxfootnoterule\footnoterule
\renewcommand\footnoterule{%
\ltxfootnoterule
\kern 5pt% back up
}
\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
Some text with a footnote.\footnote{Footnote for the text.}
\begin{center}
\begin{tikzpicture}[pencildraw/.style={ %
/utils/exec=\renewcommand\footnoterule{\color{white}\rule{.3\linewidth}{0.8pt}},
decorate,
decoration={random steps,segment length=2pt,amplitude=1pt}
} %
]
\node[
preaction={fill=black,opacity=0.5,transform canvas={xshift=1mm,yshift=-1mm}},
pencildraw,draw,fill=bblue,text=white,text width=1.00\textwidth,inner sep=2.5mm,align=justify]
{\fontsize{11.5}{14}\selectfont {\bfseries \enquote{How to increase the vertical space between the footnoteline and the (first) footnote?\footnote{\textcolor{white}{Tikz footnote.}}} \par}};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{center}
\end{document}
which produces
I would like to increase the vertical space between the footnoteline and the first footnote in the tikzpicture
.
Outside of the tikzpicture
, this can be accomplished, for example, as follows:
\let\ltxfootnoterule\footnoterule
\renewcommand\footnoterule{%
\ltxfootnoterule
\kern 5pt% back up
}
which seems to work well for the text footnote outside of the tikzpicture
. But, the above macro appears to have no effect for the footnote within the tikzpicture
.
QUESTION: How may I adjust (increase, in this case) the vertical kerning between the footnoteline and the first (only, in this case) footnote within the tikzpicture
? Remark: I do not want to affect the kerning for the footnote outside of the picture, which is being handled separately by the above macro.
Thank you.
