Thank you, these end-user instruction work fine.
With this procedure I can create my own flap and keep there templates
(e.g. various bullet lists, slide layouts) to drag out when needed like

P.S. I plan to collect the end-user instruction on using Squeak

However if somebody other feels inclined to to this as well ....
