Re: Copy and paste method
|
Hans' last suggestion is definitely the best way and should (in your case) be your standard mode of operation: A separate level for the furniture. In some projects I do exactly that so I can move around furniture without affecting the base plan for that level. This way I can keep things like doors&windows separate from other furniture like tables and chairs.
Basically you add a level at the same elevation and move all furniture to that level. If you rename your levels you can make it clear what levels should be viewed together to see a complete level. (i.e. Ground1 & Furniture1 or something like that.)
How-to:
Make the original level the only level visible.
Click in your furniture list and press ctrl-A (bottom-left pane). This selects everything in your furniture list, but not everything in the 2D view.
You can deselect with ctrl+click in the list what you want to leave as part of the ground. Ctrl-X to cut all you selected.
Add the new level at the same elevation and paste.
Now you have everything visible like before but you can select either level separately to manage it.
After the split you can use ctrl+A in the 2D view to select everything on any level you select by making that level the only one visible. Note the difference between selecting in the furniture list and the 2D pane.
