Hello Jean Sorted the problem with the extension. Apparently it had the wrong extension to the filename, which seem to solve it. However, a second try because I re-installed LO3.5 did not work and kept getting the error message that it was not an extension. Solution was to totally remove LO and re-install LO3.4.5. Template changer is now installed, but yet to try LO3.5. However, read my message Big Disaster and still getting over that embarrassment.
I shall be trying the graphics problem later. I was installing graphics onto their own paragraph when the extra space appeared at the bottom of the frame below the caption. This was why I was trying to get the 3.4 template into LO3.5 to see if that was the problem. Only tomorrow will tell when I have another go with LO3.5. This time I shall be careful.
