window above one straddling 2 floors

I asked a question a few days ago about drawing a window straddling 2 floors in stairwell.I got some good answers but now there's a new problem.

I want to have a higher window aligned with the window between 2 floors. That window is on the same floor as the cased opening I created. Is there some way to show this other than drawing it on the elevation in annotation mode?

You can have a second (or third, or fourth!) window directly above another window in the same Design Layer. Simply use Duplicate Array, with settings of X Offset = 0, Y Offset = 0, and Z Offset = 48" (e.g.). The only thing that can get dicey is trying to select one or the other - you'll need to do this in a 3d View. Also, nearly ever time I do this I end up creating a new Design Layer (called Clerestory) in order to be able to have accurate and discreet Plan View depictions of the placement of the openings. Although a note to "see elevation " would perhaps suffice.
