Hello there,

I want to know what is your method to do with Level 2 (Upstairs) and Balcony floor. Level 2 floor thickness is 255mm and Balcony floor thickness is 170mm. Walk to balcony, step down to -85mm from 255mm to 170mm but underneath, they both are same level but top are different.

I use my method is I click on Architectural/Floor to draw on centreline exterior walls around include balcony and after that, I use extrude void:Extrusion End 0.0mmExtrustion Start -85mm

draw around the balcony and cut 255mm off. Is it long way?

Let me know.

Many thanks,Bogumil :-)

Normally we would probably put these on seperate levels at the top of the structure but show them on one floor plan.   Easier to control that way.  You use a plan region if necessary and you need to host walls and doors on the correct level. 

BUT - If you want everything to report on one level, you can host everything on that level and use offsets to place them correctly.  You reaaly should pick one or the other top elevations to be your floor level - not the bearing elevation.
