Trying to set a default template. I modified some styles and want to
make them my default styles. I have followed the instructions in the
help file as detailed below. It doesn't work for me. Steps 1-3, no
problem. Step 4 is unclear at best and seemingly inaccurate at worst.
After step 3 the "My Templates" category cannot be selected or
"entered". The "button" is inoperative. I used the file name
"myTemplate" (no extension) for my newly saved template name.
Since I can't do step 4, I'm unclear as to whether step 5 is a
continuation from step 4, or if it means to close the template manager
(the only option available to me) and then proceed fresh from the File
menu. I did the only thing possible, proceed fresh from the File menu,
but *_there is no "Templates" submenu under "File"_*. I include a
couple of screenshots further below. The first one shows that there is
no "templates" submenu, only "save as template". The second one shows
the template manager screen where I'm unable to select/push the "My
Templates" button, which you can't actually see that I can't select it,
but at least you know I'm where I say I am.
So.... anyone know why it's not working for me? I will point out that
1) it's an HTML file and 2) I'm using writer/web. Perhaps that's the
reason? Maybe someone could check and see if it works for them under
those conditions?
Thank you in advance.
