To do this method you need to select the roof and edit the roof footprint.
If you try to add a roof on the lowest level a dialog prompts you to move it to a higher level.
To indicate that it should extend upward 4000 mm above level 2 specify an upper limit of level 2 and a limit offset of 4000 mm.
Open the section or elevation view to add levels to.
By default the limit offset is the distance between levels 10 or 4000 mm.
When you set a cutoff level for a roof sometimes the cut orientation is vertical perpendicular to the cutoff level and sometimes it is horizontal parallel to the cutoff level.
In addition to creating a level for each story in a building you can also create reference levels such as sill level.
