How to change a floor level?

[kalinks]

I started a new project in Home Designer Essentials 2012 by creating a 2nd floor. I now wish to create a 1st floor under this one for the same house. The software allowed me to build a new floor using the outline of the existing floor, but it insists on this new floor being the 2nd floor. (a garage on the 2nd floor doesn't work too well.) Can I swap the floor designations of the 2 floors?

Select Build> Floor> Build New Floor.

Choose Make new (blank) plan for the 2nd Floor and click OK.

Go back down to Floor 1, then select Edit> Edit Area and drag a marquee around everything you drew on Floor 1 that should've been on Floor 2, and select Edit> Cut.

Move up to Floor 2 and select Edit> Paste Hold Position.

Then go back down to your now blank Floor 1, and turn on the Reference Display so you can see how to line up the walls when you draw in the first floor.

(Pro appears to have an Insert Floor tool which makes this way easier.)
