Hi Ron, You can't unset a direct line - what it is doing is changing who the preferred child is in the particular families and each family has to have a preferred child whether or not you choose to show who it is.
If you haven't set the preferred child either individually or by setting a direct line that runs through that family, the preferred child will be the first entered. You can change a direct line by setting the direct line to someone else. Each one set overrides the other when they intersect. I set a number of direct lines and then return and reset my own unless for a particular project I really want to go to a collateral line when using the quick navigation.
