[Equest-users] Modifying Building Shell in Detailed Mode

Hi Everyone,
I have been working on an energy model for a while, and now the layout of the building has changed. The second floor was initially just a shell space, and now the owner has decided to build out the second floor with offices. So the second floor, which was initially just a big empty space, now needs to be modeled as a bunch of office spaces. Is there an easy way to change the shell in eQuest detailed mode? I don't want to go back into wizard mode, because I think it will delete everything else I have already done. Everytime I try and add a space in detailed mode, all the other space polygons get very messed up and throw everything off. Is this why some people use Revit to model the building and then import it into eQuest? Thanks for any suggestions.
