How to unlink monitors

I linked a monitor by mistake. I have tried to un-highlight the linked monitor but that doesn't work. Running 1.24.1 installed from the live CD.

Thanks

Is it so painfully obvious how to unlink monitors that I am missing it. Even a "this is how you do it stupid" reply would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Geoff

Should work by holding [Ctrl] down and clicking on the selected one will un-select it as well as permit selecting multiple monitors.

Still can't find it

I'm having the same issue. But hitting control doesn't seem to do it... And google comes with with a goose egg in regards to unlinking monitors.

So if I click on the actual monitor and get the monitor configuration window, I see the linked monitors there.

It seems as 'admin' all the cameras are linked to each other... I'd like this to not be the case.

I've configured everything else and am not entirely a dummy. Can someone help me find it?

That link explained it. If no monitors are highlighted, then they are unlinked, despite the designation of the dialog. A scrollable check box widget might be a better choice for this sucker.

Thanks for the prompt response.
