Edit Elements by Stories

I have Archicad 12. Where can I find "Edit Elements by Stories"? I want to copy 1st floor to new 2nd floor.

Thanks

I can't say I have ever come across such a command and I don't see anything in the HELP file.

In plan of the 1st storey just select what you want and COPY.
Then move to the 2nd storey and PASTE.

Interesting.
I don't get that option in version 12 on Windows.
Maybe it is a Mac thing or another version?

But if I go into "storey settings" then I see it in there.
I didn't find anything in HELP because I was spelling "storey" correctly and not as "story" - but that is another story (not storey)

Barry, maybe you're right...
I was using AC15. Sorry. I just thought that was there in other versions too.

It is - just hidden in the "Storey settings".

Just to finish the original topic:
Edit Elements by Stories was in the Story Settings Dialog in versions V12 and earlier.
Then in AC13 the Story Settings Dialog was simplified to include only the Story creation and modification features and the Edit Elements by Stories functionality (which is used much less frequently) was moved into its own Dialog.
