    Attachment Method
    Select an attachment method.

    If you select Point, only the Start Distance field is displayed when you attach this type of asset in the Roadway InfoViewer. If you select Range, both the Start Distance and End Distance fields are displayed. If you select Point and Range, both fields are displayed and you can attach the asset either on a point or along a range.

    Asset Type
    Select the type of asset that can be attached to this type of roadway.
    Right of Way Positioning
    Indicate whether a right of way position can be specified for the asset type.

    A right of way position indicates an asset's location across the width of the roadway, such as Right Lane or Center Divider. If you select No, the Right of Way Position field will not be displayed when you attach this type of asset in the Roadway InfoViewer. If you select Available, the field will be displayed. If you select Required, the field will be displayed and be required.
