Not that that's any help. You already understood that much. ;-)

Well, we'll need to have a variable to decide whether to
include the parent's layout.

  <!--- parent fbx_layouts.cfm --->
  <cfset fusebox.layoutDir = "">
  <cfif attributes.suppressLayout>
    <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "">
  <cfelse>
    <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "parentLayout.cfm">
  </cfif>

And let's set that variable to false by default.

  <!--- parent fbx_layouts.cfm --->
  <cfset fusebox.layoutDir = "">

  <cfparam name="attributes.suppressLayout" default="FALSE">
  <cfif attributes.suppressLayout>
    <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "">
  <cfelse>
    <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "parentLayout.cfm">
  </cfif>

Now we just need to set it to false in the two children.

  <!--- child circuit fbx_layouts.cfm --->

  <cfset attributes.suppressLayout = TRUE>
  <cfset fusebox.layoutDir = "">
  <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "">

There are a couple of ways to do that. I like to have the fuseaction
set a variable that the fbx_layouts file in the child will use to
determine which layout to use.

  <!--- child circuit fbx_switch.cfm --->

  ...
  <cfcase value="doSomething">

    <cfset attributes.displayMode = "fancy">

    <cfinclude template="dsp_somethinge.cfm">

  </cfcase>

  <cfcase value="doSomethingElse">

    <cfset attributes.displayMode = "simple">

    <cfinclude template="dsp_somethinge.cfm">

  </cfcase>

  ...

 

 

  <!--- child circuit fbx_layouts.cfm --->

  <cfset attributes.suppressLayout = TRUE>
  <cfset fusebox.layoutDir = "">
  <cfswitch case="#attributes.displayMode#">

    <cfcase value="fancy">

      <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "fancyLayout.cfm">

    </cfcase>   

        <cfcase value="simple">

      <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "simpleLayout.cfm">

    </cfcase>

    ...

    <cfdefaultcase>

      <cfset fusebox.layoutFile = "">

    </cfdefaultcase>

    </cfswitch>

 

Does that help at all?
