drawing curves

[chequer]

I am trying to draw a curve following this Publisher Help:
< On the Objects toolbar, click AutoShapes , point to Lines, and then click
Curve .
In the publication, click where you want to start the curve, and then
continue to click wherever you want to add a curve.
Do one of the following:
To complete a shape, leaving it open, double-click.
To complete the shape by closing it, click near its starting point. >
I follow these instructions but I can't get it to work.
I expected to get a curve which would have a centre point that I could drag
into the curve shape I want.
Where am I going wrong?

You are not doing anything wrong, Select the shape, right-click, edit points.
Close path will be in this dialogue too if the shape didn't automatically close.
Publisher's drawing tools are not the best.
