Working with multi-level sites

Required role: Member · Tier: Base

Use levels in Monterra when a site has more than one floor or deck to design on. Each level holds its own floorplan and its own equipment, and only one level is active at a time.

Adding a level

1. Open the level dropdown on the Design map (it shows the active level's name).
2. Click Add new level.
3. Rename it (see below) to something meaningful, like Level 1, Ground floor, or Deck B.

A new level copies the settings of the one you added it from. Upload its floorplan with the Floorplan button.

Switching between levels

• Open the level dropdown and pick a level. The map redraws to show that level's floorplan and equipment.
• Or click a level name in the Site Navigator sidebar.

Anchoring equipment to a level

Equipment you place is attached to whichever level is active when you place it. To put a charger on the second floor, switch to that level first, then drop the marker.

To move an existing item to a different level, drag it in the Site Navigator onto the target level row.

Renaming and removing

• Rename. Open the level dropdown, click the pencil next to the level, edit the name, and click the check.
• Delete. Click the trash icon next to the level in the dropdown, then confirm. Deleting a level also deletes its floorplan and every map element on it. This cannot be undone.

The last remaining level cannot be deleted.

Tips

• Keep one floorplan per level. To add a second floorplan, add a second level.
• Name levels by what's on them (Garage P1, Roof deck) so the dropdown stays readable on long projects.
