Layout mode and Roadway mode in Subassembly Composer

I use SAC 2014 to create a subassembly such as following but when design, the next Subassembly doesn’t attach with point P4, while the terms verify as designed is TRUE.

 


 

I checked and found that the Layout mode  is diffirent with-  the Roadway mode.

 


 

Please help to my problem.

Thank everyone!

Roadway mode considers all of the targets and Layout mode does not. Layout mode is what it will look like when you insert the subassembly onto an assembly in Civil 3D. If it is important for you to see this point in layout, try fiddling with the Miscellaneous Properties in your points and auxiliary points where you can specify a DeltaX for Layout mode, or you can fake the logic in layout mode by using the API function SubassemblyName.IsLayout

Thank KMercier_C3D very much!

 

I used API function SubassemblyName.IsLayout and have solved my problem.

 

Thanks again!

you can use it with a decision using this expression.

although you can also use the expression in the following way if you are a slightly more advanced user
