Openings - Plan view symbol for an slab opening that is Overhead

While the manual suggests that i's possible to show an overhead slab opening in a plan view, I haven't been able to find the settings to make this work. Help!

You have to set your slab to show one (or more) storey/s down.

Then you will see the opening too.

Unfortunately you can't see the opening, if you can't see the slab.
