Hello Alex,

You have to add the template to your templates list to be able to open it and 
modify it. You can use an existing template as the basis for a new template and 
you can turn placeholder text back into normal text using the same command that 
made it placeholder text in the first place.
To delete a template from your templates in the chooser, navigate to the one to 
be deleted, bring the mouse and get a contextual menu with Ctrl-Click using the 
mouse or trackpad to click. VO-Shift-m doesn’t work.

You did the sensible thing by saving your template in the Finder first, as once 
it’s in the template chooser, you can no longer find it to share it with anyone.

Cheers,

Anne
