WSM provides the following location types: area, building, floor, and room. The area type is the default type for location views. Any type of the sub-location view can be added for an area location view. Only floor and room sub-location views can be added for a building location view. Only room sub-location views can be added for a floor location view. No sub-location views can be added for a room location view.
No sub-location views can be added to locations that are set to a hotspot.
Only locations with no sub-locations can be set to hotspot.
A location view, like a Windows folder, can include sub-location views of unlimited levels.
