Level 3: 3000mm above the level 2 to carry the first floor wallsLevel 4: 3000mm above the level 3 to carry the roof
Procedure:1. Double-Click on South on the project browser2. Click on drafting on the menu bar3. Click on level from the drop down menu4. The adjustment - Place your cursor on the level 2 to highlight it and make sure + (cross) sign
