Overlaid Rooms
i mention that i can find no information in User Manual

simple question: how is the display order of the (floor) surface of different 'Rooms' determined when they overlap each other?

Re: Overlaid Rooms
Rooms are drawn in the order they were added.
Note that it doesn't give the same result in the plan and in the 3D view.
In the plan, a room is filled with a half transparent color or texture so you'll see other rooms below it (in the levels at the same elevation if any).
In the 3D view, a room floor will cut room floors below it.

Re: Overlaid Rooms
hmmm. noted.

Rooms are drawn in the order they were added.

*** latest on top? any wy to reorder (other than deleting and redoing)? can different Levels be used?

*** 'below' meaning 'added after/later'?

Lastest added on top (but with transparency in the plan).
To reorder a room you have to cut-paste it.
Only rooms in the levels at the same elevation are drawn (and it depends on which level you selected).

In the 3D view, a room floor will cut room floors below it.
'below' meaning 'added after/later'?
No, it means "added before".
