Noel,
Your method works only for shape expressions, not *smart shapes*.

I'm working with some of Bill Duncan's templates - importing advantageous things into my own. There are some custom Smart Shapes (very useful things, including ending repeats that are Smart Shapes rather than Repeat Tool items - they'll keep their relationships with the measure to which they are attached on extracted parts - hooray!).
What I am wondering is, can these be imported from Bill's template as some kind of library? Bill doesn't know how. Any ideas?
Open the template, select the expression tool, double click on the score to open the initial dialog, and select shape, and in the resulting dialog box, choose "select". This opens up the shape designer dialog for the template. Add, or delete any shapes you want at this point. Close all of the dialog boxes, and from the file menu, select "save libraries". In the dialog box presented, select "shapes".
I would make sure to ask Bill Duncan's permission first. While I don't know whether or not Bill does, I consider some of my shapes to be copyrightable content.
