I have a level that has one room that is 3' higher. I don't have a separate level for that floor an di try to avoid that since it is just a minor room.
Now I have the problem that I can't have a space/room if that floor is room-bounding. this only seems to work if the computation height is above the (3'higher) floor. the issue is described here
It seems the computation height can only be adjusted per level. but if i change it for the entire level, I run into unintended consequences since the volume of the regulars rooms (the ones on actual level) will be wrong. there also could be other consequences.
So is there a way to adjust the computation height for just one room or do I need to add a separate level?
I use elum (a lighting calc plugin) and that places lighting calculation points on the space. I fear if I check my way through this (just placing it a few feet above etc.) there may be other unintended consequences.
I use R2023

Adjust just ONE Room? What about changing the Room's limit offset?
....I wouldn't have any qualms about adding a "reference" Level.
When I try the room (or pace) limits, it give me the below error. So the bottom of the room or space cannot be above the computation height.
I meant that as a workaround to using Computation Height - not in conjunction with it. If that's what you are trying to do, then a Ref. Level may be your only option.
Can you make the 3' H floor not bounding room? Or, set Volume Computations to Areas only instead of Areas and Volumes.
Thanks to both. I created a new level and placed the room and space on that. While doing that I also learned that I can place a previously deleted room/space by selecting it from the drop-down. I didn't know that. You have to create a view for that new level.
For the future I know to not just sloppily add an elevated floor, but to create a new level.
ToanDN: the floor was non-bounding and the space went rigth through that. that wasn't a problem until I placed the lighting calculation points and they were under the floor. I didn't try the "area calcs" only, but for some reason i think that would bite me whenever I need a volume calc (ventilation rates depending on ACH come to mind, I'm sure there is more). So I'm not sure if it helps a as a workaround. But ultimately I decided adding a level is the proper solution.
