However, now another issue has come up. I’ve created two shells in the wizard – one for the first floor and one for the second floor. I have defined the 2<sup>nd</sup> florr to be “immediately above” the 1<sup>st</sup> floor. However, when I move to the detailed mode, the 2<sup>nd</sup> floor appears to be on the same plane as the 1<sup>st</sup> floor. It appears like it does not recognize that there is a second floor and the zoning is distorted. No matter what I try, I cannot seem to get the 2<sup>nd</sup> floor shell to move. Any advice?</span></p>
