Sure, if I understand what you are asking, you can use conditional logic to
set the home circuit's layoutfile to "" or to any other file you like.

A common way to do this would be to set a flag in the child circuit's
fbx_layouts, something like attributes.stoplayout=true, asking the circuits
higher not to supply any additional layout.  Then your higher-level circuits
have to respond to this flag appropriately.

So your home circuit's fbx_layout might look like this:
<cfparam name="attributes.stoplayout" default="false">
<cfif attributes.stoplayout>
  <cfset fusebox.layoutfile = "">
<cfelse>
  <cfset fusebox.layoutfile = "lay_main.cfm">
</cfif>

Whatcha reckon?

Hi there Lee (and Jeff),

I think you've spelled it out for me with the diretion to set the home 
circuit's fbx_layouts to "". That is what I needed.  Does that mean that 
I can't have my main application files in a folder using one layout and 
then a nested folder (containing another circuit) using a different 
layout without setting the home ciruit's layout to ""?  I suppose it's 
no big deal to set up the application with folders on the same level, I 
am just used to doing it the way I've described.

Thanks!
