Can't save layout file

Vic12

When I try to save the a layout file I get a message that I can't because the program is trying to name the file w punctuation - there's some pre-recorded keychain that I don't know how to override- or reprogram -
suggestions -- thanks -
I'm including a screen grab of the message I'm getting

I gather it is the /SKP:LAYOUT/ That is causing the problem? I wonder why it is showing SKP/LAYOUT in Finder (which would indicate two folders). Rename the folder from SKP/LAYOUT to SKP_LAYOUT. What happens if you save the file locally instead?

I've gotten that before in LO, try to change file name or as Dave said, save locally.

In cross-platform file naming...
You cannot use : / \ * ? " < > | characters in file names [ : is precluded in OSX]...
Also avoid any character typed using the Ctrl/Cmd key etc...
Also avoid allowed, but potentially problematic/confusing { } ' \ = + @
Also avoid starting/ending a file/folder-name with a <space> or a .
Or starting with a . unless it's to be a hidden file [but also disallowed under OSX].
The ^ is also best avoided for files to be used on a FAT Window systems...
The file names com1, com2, com3, com4, com5, com6, com7, com8, com9, lpt1, lpt2, lpt3, lpt4, lpt5, lpt6, lpt7, lpt8, lpt9, con, nul, and prn all are reserved names under Windows systems...
