So I'm building a building that's church-like which needed a high-rise building. I set it to 3 stories high (I think) and the problem is that on the lowest floor, it will show an invisible ceiling with no roof or anything, but on the most upper floor it shows everything, which isn't what I want to see because I'm restrained on the third floor and I can't go any lower. I have attached screen shots in this post. I hope someone can help me?

You mean you want to see the walls from the other floors and the roof while you are on the first floor?
This doesn't work in build/buy, you have to be in live mode:
- Go up until everything is there including the roof.
- If you hit TAB now, you change to camera mode. Use the keys q, w, e, a, s, d to navigate (With q you can go down to ground level, basement or whatever your lowest level is.) and the mouse to rotate/change the camera angle. With TAB you can change to live mode again.

Aha! Thank you so much, I didn't know about q and e. One more thing though, is there a way to make the camera movement faster when I'm in tab mode?

It's kind of hard to explain, which is why I have screenshots

Basically, what I want is to have hidden attributed to both levels, with and without foundation. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance

is there a way to make the camera movement faster when I'm in tab mode?mouse scroll wheel? I can slow down fast enough when I pan with my mouse, in any case.
And threads merged as they both dealt with Building questions (you don't need separate threads for each individual question you have on Building, btw :) ), and moved to Create -> Building.

Okay, I was going to ask if I should make two threads but I was afraid someone would say that it's off topic or something :!!:
And about the camera movement, for some reason, as I go lower and lower with Q, the camera movement going down is slowed also. Slowed a lot. So when I'm on the first floor and I try to move with WASD in Tab mode, it's very slow. When I go back to the top floor, the camera movement is back to default, which is fast.
And I forgot to mention, my second building problem is used with a debug item called Hidden Room, which is what those silver spheres are
