Default Re: How do I unmerge?

I'm not *sure*, but I don't think you can manage Parent Child relationships per se with the stock AC3D. You can manage "display order" and grouping though. This is managed in Tools/Heirarchy View.

Select an object in the viewports, then in the Heirarchy menu, right click it to move it up or down in the heirarchy, or to move to the head (first to display) or tail (last to display). This helps when you have transparent objects like windows, such that the windows are last and objects will display "through" the transparency.

To truly get parent/child relationships, get the X-Plane plug-in, as this has the basic animation features that include parent/child.
