Losing my mind??? What happenen to detatching a decal?

(OP)
I think I may be losing my mind so please forgive the following question :)

What happened to the "Detatch Decal" button or option?  I know I have used it in the past but I can no longer find it.  I even tried the help file with no luck.

Thanks in advance but not for the ridicule I am sure to receive....

Go to the photoworks tab and expand decal then RMB the decal and select Detach.

RE: Losing my mind??? What happenen to detatching a decal?

You are looking in the wrong area.  Exit the editing decal. Right-click the decals folder on the render manager tab in the task pane, and choose "Detach all decals".  If their are several decals in that folder, you can right-click a single decal and choose "Detach".

Thanks to all who have sent suggestions but smcadman hit the bullseye on the target.

Now, is it just me or does it seem a bit odd that the detatch option is not discussed in the SW help file, or the training books for Photoworks?  Makes me wonder what other functions are available but not mentioned anywhere.  Maybe we could have a "TIPS" message that users can update with available functions that have been overlooked in the help file and training manuals.

Thanks again
