When I start the program I can open the sample library, I can then see a list of all the components.

From then I can "double click" on one to open it.

There is a small window with a list of the component in, however I cannot see how I can close the component I have visible and return to just a listing on its own?

When you open a FPX file and double click on a row, the program opens the Calculator and applies your personal rules to auto-generate the Footprint.
 
To close the Calculator, select the the "View Full Screen" Icon  in the Library Toolbar (to the left of the Footprint icon). 
 
Or you can select the "View > Full Screen" drop-down menu.
