Creating/Adding a floor

Creating or adding a floorplan in Packet tracer?

Sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place.

I am still learning the ins and outs of PT but in my research the most I can find regarding floor plans is using the FindIT Network Probe located here.

I am a student and my most recent assignment is to design a network for a casino with 10 floors and 40 rooms per floor.

I have already created a floorplan using MS Visio and imported it as a .png  to change the background image, but I was getting an error when I tried to save the PT.

So maybe there is a better way to use a custom floorplan in the packet tracer physical view?

Thank you for any help

the answer given is wrong, you CAN import custom floorplans as images via the "Set background image" icon (row of icon, top-right, 3rd from last - looks like a mountain) - using this button, you can set the background image for whatever "level" you're on at the time, i.e. at city level you can use a background image of London, for intercity a background of a borough, then in a building use  background of a cross section of the building showing the floors - use generic containers for each floor, and within the generic containers use background images of the floor plans.
