[Equest-users] Add a zone in detailed mode

[Brad Robinson]

Due to some changes in the floor plan, I need to add another zone by splitting one zone into 2.  Currently I am in detailed mode and prefer to not switch back.   I can change the shape of the existing zone to a smaller one no problem.  The issue comes when trying to create a new zone.  I have tried several methods but end up with either:

a) I tried copying an existing space polygon, but it does not actually seem to be a copy, as when I move points, it changes the shape of the original space as well
b) Tried to create a zone from scratch using a BOX shape, but whenever I finish editing the vertices, I gives me the error "Unable to post date to the BDL"
c) One time I successfully created a shape, but it seems to move depending on what view I am in.  For instance, in polygon view, it is in the correct spot, but when I go to 2D mode, it is located completely outside of the building.


I'm not sure what the approach is to do this.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
