You can change the names and elevations of levels by selecting a level and then clicking
the name or the elevation value. Rename Level 3 to
Level 2B
, Level 4 to
Level 3
, and Level
5 to
Roof
. If you are prompted to rename the associated views, click Yes.
As we stated previously, plan views are not created for levels that are copied or arrayed. This
gives you the flexibility to quickly generate levels for taller buildings without all the associated
views that may increase your project file size unnecessarily. While this workflow may be
beneficial for you in early design phases, what do you do when you need all those floor plans
and ceiling plans for that high-rise design?
If you want to convert a level that doesn't have a view to one that does, find the Create panel
on the Views tab and then select the Plan View command. This opens the dialog box shown in
Figure 2.25. You can select among all the levels without corresponding views in your project.
Only the levels you copied in the previous exercise are listed in the dialog box.
