How can I change the corridor width?
After entering the Circulation edit mode, it's possible to click, hold and drag the circle appearing in the middle of the corridor line. If dragged in, it will make the corridor narrower, if dragged outwards, it will make it wider. The number indicates the current width of the corridor in Meters/Inches.

Can I edit the corridor after generating a floor?
