If i may help you,

Leave the clip monitor in your layout. 

Drag it in the same windows/frame as your project monitor. This will create two tabs : [clip monitor] & [project monitor].
Once your click on clip in timeline it will auto switch to [project monitor] and when you click on your source clip, it will switch to the [clip monitor].
