■ Press ESC to end the stair command, and select the stair to display its grips.
■ Select and move the square Location grip to adjust the position of the stair in the stairway.
■ Press ESC to hide the stair grips.
13 Use the same method, place another stair in the stairway in the upper-right portion of the building.
Now that you have added walls, doors, and windows to the floor plan, apply different display configurations
to the floor plan. The objects on the floor plan display differently depending on the display configuration
you apply. This makes it easy to shift from this floor plan view to a presentation view or to a reflected
ceiling plan view, without creating new views or drawings.
14 View the floor plan in different display configurations:
■ On the drawing window status bar, select the arrow next to Medium Detail.
■ On the flyout menu that displays, select Presentation, and view the changes to the floor plan that
display.
■ Continue to apply different display configurations, such as Reflected, Low Detail, and High Detail.
■ After viewing the available display configurations, restore the Medium Detail configuration.
Next, add spaces to the floor plan. The spaces that you create are associative to the walls; if you move a
wall to change the dimensions of a room, the space automatically resizes and the space tag reports the new
area.
