Thanks to the following persons (apologize if I accidentally miss anyone!):
Lorenzo Jorquera, Daniel Reyes, Michelle Handley, P.G.L. van den Beukel,
Doug Atkinson.

This is a summary of the suggestions:
When a layout is saved as a template, it is saved as an ODB file called
template.def, in the project's (in which the original template was created)
home directory. If no specific folder is chosen by an user for a project,
this directory is usually the $HOME or $TEMP directory. This template.def
file needs to be saved in any other project's home directory, in case of a
user-chosen directory, otherwise it should be avilable to any other projects
on that machine.

Original Question:
Can layout template created in a project be used in other projects? Or, let
me put it this way, are user-created templates portable between different
projects?
I'd appreciate any and all wisdom thrown into this matter.
And, of course, I'll SUM.
