Move the • Perspective view to look at the ceiling from inside the room.
Tip: If you are having a hard time moving the perspective inside the room, you can use
the same trick you used for the sky dome to have it not displayed as double-sided
in the Attribute Editor.
Select the polygon by clicking on the • blue square located in the center of the face.
Notice that when you move your cursor over the face’s center, the face turns red to specify
the face that will be selected. Once selected, the face gets highlighted.
