Change room height to the entire drawn plan...how?

[TSarantopulos]

I have a 4000sf floor plan that is really cutup from another draftsman.  The entire plan was drawn with a 9' plate height/ the default setting.  How do I change it so all rooms are 8' without having to go room to room.  I could not find under preferences. How can it be done to the entire floor plan?

EDIT: See Glenn's response below for best results.

 

Change the settings for one room and then select the room and click the Match Properties tool and select the height and any other properties that you want to change at the same time and then click OK and select the Apply Properties tool and apply to each room by clicking.

 

Or change the default height and open each room DBX and select the new default.

 

There are likely other ways that will work but that should get you where you need to be.

Go to Default Settings...Floors and Rooms...Current Floor...

change the ceiling height to what you want - this changes the default.

Because the plan was already drawn using the default, all the rooms should change by adopting the new default..

There should be no need to open each room dbx.

Thanks Glenn, I guess that did not work for me because I tried the other way first which took everything off default.

That's what I needed!  Thanks Glenn!
