Moving Level-Based Components to Different Hosts

Use the following procedure to move a level-based component to a different level, floor, or surface. Examples of level-based components include furniture, plantings, and plumbing fixtures. When you place a level-based component on a host, it remains on the host's infinite plane. For example, when you place a desk on a floor, and then drag the desk beyond the confines of the floor, the desk remains on the same plane as the floor.

  1. In a section or elevation view, select the level-based component.
  2. Click Modify | <family category>Host panel Pick New Host.
  3. In the drawing area, highlight the desired new host (floor, surface, or level), and click to complete the move.
