Re: [libreoffice-users] Cannot edit a template ott file

Ken,
          I'll admit to not knowing LO very well, do most of my work
in Lyx, so one of the guru's may correct me.

I believe that your problems are in the save procedure. When you edit
one of your custom templates, LO will be handling it as an .odt, which
is normal.  If you do a Save As .ott  you'll be asked where to put it. 
Unless
you specify exactly where, your edited template will probably be saved 
somewhere
in Documents and thus will _not_  be recalled if you type Ctrl+Shift+N.  
It thus
appears to you that the edit  has not worked.

For your template to be selected by Ctrl+ etc. it needs to be saved in the
Users Templates  sub-folder.  This is vaguely explained in the Help. Look
at Tools>Options>LibreOffice>Paths  for the exact address.

Gordon.
