Stories Help!

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi! I have a major problem. My current design has 4 levels but only 2 stories in archicad. This happened because I manipulated the absolute base height without switching between stories. Some of the elements cannot be viewed or edited in plan view as a result.

I'd like to know if its possible for me to introduce new stories of appropriate height and elevation without my model being distorted(a quote from "ArchiCAD Help" that summarises my problem with using this method is attached below).
Or perhaps anyone has other suggestions that might work?
Please help! Thanks

"Changes to story height and elevation are interpreted differently:
• If you modify the height of a story, this will affect the elevation of all stories above (if the story number is positive) or below (if the story number is negative). In practical terms, you stretch or shrink the whole building by making the height of a story larger or smaller. The height of all other stories remain as they were.

• If you modify the elevation of a story, this will affect the heights of the stories immediately above and below. In practical terms, you move the level of a single story while keeping the rest of the building static. The elevation of all other stories remain as they were. "
