Set the "parent" value of your shoulder component to the end condition. The component will only be created when that end condition is used.

I would make sure that your points have different names. Then, only apply a style constraint to the side you want to seek the style.

How do I get my style Seek point to seek on only one side of my template? I have defined points for my Left and Right sides, but they both seem to be responding to ANY style trigger (no matter what side of the template it's on).

All the videos I watch show it working for a one-sided template. I need to be able to seek left and right independently, and every time I tihnk I've figured it out, it fails, which means I DON't have it figured out.

You cannot change a component into an end condition, but you could use display rules (https://communities.bentley.com/products/road___site_design/w/road_and_site_design__wiki/2088/2088). If you wanted to use a style constraint (https://communities.bentley.com/products/road___site_design/w/road_and_site_design__wiki/2086/2086), you will probably have to couple that with a display rule so that the component does not show when it finds a drive or a roadway. You would want it to seek a style associated with a driveway past where the component should be placed, so that you can use a display rule. The display rule could be some sort of horizontal rule that will not display the component when it goes past a specific point.
