Add sunken rooms to same level?
This is my first time using the software so please bare with me.

I imported the house plans and did all the enterior walls for the main level of the home. Within the main level there are a few areas with sunken rooms. For example, after walking through the front door you go down a few stairs to get to the kitchen/office/dining room, then down a few more steps from their to get to the family room. All of this is the main level of the house.

I did "plan->add level", but now I can't see my floor plan. I also see "add room" as an option.

What's my best bet here?

Re: Add sunken rooms to same level?
Welcome newbie,

My first question is : Is the ceiling at the same height ?

If yes, follow the belowed picture.



If not, you must do more levels or add boxes on the top.

Give us pictures once finished.

Add level just prepares a new empty level. Then you must draw something in that level, like rooms or walls.
If you adjust correctly walls and level height, levels can overlap.
