    Default edges in massing 2010

    ok, so i draw a square on level one and click 'create form'. i now have a 6 sided box. if i want to add an edge i click 'add edge', same with 'add profile'... but my problem is i can only add edges and profiles to vertical faces, no watter what i try i can't get seem to add an edge to a horizontal face (even after setting the horizontal face as the working plane). am i missing something or is it not possible to add an edge to a horizontal face?

    when drawing the shape before the "Create form" button, use multiple segments that connect at endpoints. The points will create a "seam" that can then be edited, much like adding an edge to a horizontal face.

    At least i know now...seems these Revit modelling tools still need a lot of development.
