If you add (manually) a floor or a ceiling, you should define the elevation
Try these options
1 - Draw the ceiling with the Floor tool Select the ceiling / object --> Edit--> Set object elevation--> write the desired elevation
or
2 - Select the ceiling / object --> right click on the elevation slider--> write the desired elevation
or
3 - Select the ceiling / object--> right click on the piece--> Set elevation--> write the desired elevation
Don't forget that the elevation of a ceiling will be the height of the walls + the Autofloor of these walls (if you considered Autofloor). And to consider only the ceilings with different elevations, you must uncheck the autofloor of the upper level
Hope this helps

Thanks for the tips. It wasn't intuitive to me that a ceiling should be specified by adding a "floor" to single story structure. But I'm beginning to understand the Punch! 'logic' now. I'll give it a try.

Hi stephanieguess
The first answer for versions V4.5.1 and up is: the ceilings are created with the floor tool and then you must set the elevation
To do this, try these options
1 - Draw the ceiling with the Floor tool Select the ceiling / object --> Edit--> Set object elevation--> write the desired elevation
or
2 - Select the ceiling / object --> right click on the elevation slider--> write the desired elevation
or
3 - Select the ceiling / object--> right click on the piece--> Set elevation--> write the desired elevation
Don't forget that the elevation of a ceiling will be the height of the walls + the Autofloor of these walls (if you considered Autofloor). And to consider only the ceilings with different elevations, you must uncheck the autofloor of the upper level
If you have a V10 program, you can draw a set of walls--> select them--> Properties bar--> bottom of the bar--> ceiling / floor button
Check the image attached
Hope this helps
