Hi all,
old topic, maybe some new solutions in 2011? I also need to be able to create area plans in which bearing walls are ignored. So no area over a bearing wall.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Are you talking area plans really or could you use rooms?
Area plans can be sketched instead of letting Revit create them, then just point to the lines to sketch and exclude your walls.

Hi WWhub,
no I really want to use rooms. The option to sketch the lines by hand is fairly good. I've been doing a test-project, and it works fine. I was searching for the even easier way, but this is also good.
I think we're gonna use Rooms in the earlier stages of a project, and when making the drawings for the building-permit, add area-plans. Rooms so we can tag the rooms in an early stage, without the need of creating seperate plans, and areas to be more flexible in determing the boundaries.
Is there a way, to make an area take over the name of the room?
Thanks!

Under the room & Area pulldown, you have some options. Just set these the way you want for your room areas. See attached:
