Client requested to increase a level height, how can I adjust the levels without all the warnings?

Hello, I'm working with a 35-story building that is 351'-2" tall. The client has requested to increase the 10th floor by 2'. Meaning floors 11-35 will be affected and the entire building grows by 2'. How can I make the adjustment in revit without all the warnings and ungrouping inconsistent groups or creating new group types when I manually move each level in elevation? Help!

Run a dimension string through every level in a section view, lock all of them except between level 10 and 11.  Select level 11 and change the unlocked dimension between 10 and 11 to add 2'.

I would first edit the groups in the level 10 and make all the wall height to be unconnected. As well if you have columns and stair, set the top constraint level as level 10 and give it height. If you have object hosted on floor slab, you want to set the host to level. Once you done that, try moving the entire level by 2' and see if that breaks the group.

This worked! Thank you very much! It saved me so much time! Doing it this way also gave me some warning errors and ungrouping inconsistent groups, but it's not as critical. Thanks!
