I am making non-rectangular walls I plan and I notice that there is not a ROOM BOUNDING option in created wall families. Is there any way to have these newly created wall families behave in such a way?

you can use the "room separation" tool. Go to the drafting tab and choose "room separation" This is basically a line tool which you use to draw a line to separate your rooms. hope that helps! -hj-

Thanks for the reply. So this means any wall families that need to get created need to be traced by room separating lines?

The correct answer to your question is that irregular walls should allow you to tag them and display area values like any other. I just created a new wall type, laid out some irregular walls with circlular, angular and rectangular orientations and then placed a room tag and it tagged fine. I turned off the room bounding box for one wall and that broke the room boundary as you would expect. I suspect there is something else going on here, but you should not have to draw room separations if you have walls enclosing your space. Maybe email the file to me and I can take a look.
