[Equest-users] Zoning in different floors - eQuest

[B. Fountain]

In order to change the zoning between floors, each floor would be a shell
so you need to use the DD wizard to create your model.

For the attrium, create that zone in both shells, then in the detailed
interface, create an air-wall between the two vertical zones.

The multi-level option only works within a given shell.
