Import Screen Layout Robohelp 2017

I created a test project in Responsive HTML 5 I experiment with, and use to store different designs. Now I want to create the real project, and import a screen layout from the test project. Online help just says the following: "To import a screen layout, select Import and specify an SLZ file name."

There is no illustration, and no instructions on where to go to locate "Import," which I don't see anywhere. In older versions it used to be under File, but it isn't there in 2017. When I look for .SLZ files in the Robohelp project directory, nothing displays.

How do I do this?

I'm wondering if the issue is simply that the layouts created have not been exported as SLZ files. Then they are imported as Jeff describes. The Gallery issue is, I believe, when a home brewed layout needs to be imported and is not yet in a project for export / import.

See Rick's post#7 in this thread - Re: Gallery doesn't show my new screen layout to export the screen layout .slz from the test project. Then I think you can right-click in the Output Setup pod and Import it in the new project.
