I am using OO 4.1.1 with Windows 8.1 . I displayed the help item 'creating document templates' and followed the instructions to create the required template (with some difficulty!).
Below these instructions it states: To create a document based on the template choose File - New - Templates and Documents, select the template and click Open. However, selecting 'Templates and Documents' takes me back to the screen for creating a template. 'Commands', 'Organise' or any other button does not allow me to find the template (and click Open). Will appreciate guidance. Thanks.
