Editing a building

Buildings contain a floor count and floor to floor heights per floor. You can add or remove floors via the Count input in the right sidebar when a building is selected, or you can use the push/pull tool on the roof of the building.

The Height input in the right sidebar when a building is selected will set all floors of the building to the same floor to floor height. You can set the height of an individual floor by clicking on the floor of the building and setting the Height input in the right sidebar for the selected floor.
