No, this is not the answer. I am trying to find a graphical way to
manage changing WiFi hotspots depending on where I am. There is no way
I should need to edit files if I am sitting in a coffee shop or public
bar into which I have never been before.

I am only a newbie with networking and trying to understand. Would the below
be part of the answer.
Start by editing the dhcpcd.conf file
sudo nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf
Scroll all the way to the bottom of the file and add one, or both of the
following snippets. Depending on whether you want to set a static IP address
for a wired connection or a wireless connection eth0 = wired, wlan0 =
wireless.
You’ll need to edit the numbers in the snippet so they match your network
configuration.
CODE
interface eth0
static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24
static routers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1
interface wlan0
static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24
static routers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1
