I am somewhat new to Revit so please bear with me!
As I began adding/tagging rooms, a "phantom" room boundary has popped up  see attached image) that appears to be a wall. I have checked all the other views of my project and I cannot for the life of me find this wall! There is a soffit wall above but it is not room bounding and certainly is not that thick. I have not tagged the room south of the multipurpose room because this "phantom wall" runs all the way through it dividing it into two seperate rooms when it should be one. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Cut a section where this wall appears to be. Make sure you have all worksets on and check Design Options. I bet it is your soffit wall.

I cut the section and have looked at it from multiple views. Still nothing. The soffit wall actually does not have that exact footprint. It continues to the north wall. And it is not room bounding either. Hmm

I even deleted the soffit wall and the phantom wall is still there.

And yes - post the palan that shows where your section is cut and your section.

change the limit offset of your room to 9' instead of 10' and see if it goes away.
also try selecting the room in section and see the volume of it.
i can definetely see some other odd occurances in your plans as well. maybe theres some room seperation lines floating around in there. also your rooms arent cleaning up correctly at the walls. do you have any hidden geometry?

Changed the limit offset but nothing changed. How do I select the room in section so it shows the volume? I tried selecting in plan and switching views but that didn't work. And what do you mean have I mirrored part of the project?
Thanks for the quick responses!!

I didn't see this posted anywhere - Under lines, did you turn on room seperation lines? They can exist seperate from other bounding elements.

Ah ha! I think I found it! It was odd. I could select the wall when I was in a section view that was not cutting through it but looking at the end face of it. Which was invisible but not hidden in view. (see attachment) Not sure where this wall came from but glad it's gone. If you have any ideas of how to avoid this in the future or know what I did to create this problem I would appreciate it. Thanks for the help!
