Using AVT2014 to generate parking layout. What about curb?

We're looking to use AVT2014 to generate parking layouts in our parking lots.  We'd like to show the stripes that AVT generates on our striping plans. 

 

The lot is bounded by curb and gutter.  As such the end spaces won't have a stripe at the curb side of the space.  How can I get it to NOT put that stripe?

 

So far, the only way I've found to get rid of the unwanted stripes is to explode the parking row which demotes it down to Acad polylines which of course eliminates the dynamic capabilities.

 

And while we're at it, is there a way to have AVT draw the curb line too?

I thought maybe a graphic would help.  In the following screenshot, the purple linework represents the face of curb line.  The yellow lines are the stripes.

 

I don't want to show the end stripes (and why is it showing the yellow line along the back of the space?  That's not a stripe.

are we looking at an already exploded one?
in the Pool edit the standard: RC edit>> End island tab>> clear check boxes to draw island and hatch.

Bay style tab>> normal>> bay markings [...] clear the "baseline" box. (clear the T if you dont want those hideous things.
Also, set "sideline offset to 0 if you want the paint to go to the curb

Did that help?

 

Another thing. From what I have gathered about AVT thus far the "pool" of standards is exactly that a pool, and infers that many standards can be used in one parking plan. That is your base standard , a copy edited to not show end islands and son on. So many swimmers can be in the pool to get the achieved look.

 

I had an SR on this an learned a bit. Dimensioning the end islands isn't going to happen any time soon. getting the bay side to fillet, no. Getting the layer button to let you choose a company standard layer, no. However, these items were enthusiastically given to development.

No the image shown was WITHOUT exploding the parking row.  At the very ends, there is a yellow stripe -- but there will be a curb there so I don't need/want a stripe there.  I placed this with End Island turned off and I don't see the any end islands (they're blue when they're on).  I did eventaually figure out how to get rid of what I was calling the back line (which I now know to be termed "Baseline" in AVT and also how to get rid of the T.

 

The only issue left is the curb & stripes at the ends of the row -- if there's curb, I don't need a stripe.

When clear the check box in the standards file I thought the last stripe turned off.
If not, a wipe out should do it.
