This little check box means that your linked exterior curtain wall project can provide the room bounding your core/shell/interior project needs so you can avoid creating lots and lots of room separation lines. I'm also interested to see if users can harness the feature to enhance Unit Plan workflow perhaps. Happy Linking!

Steve this is a great tip and I certainly believe that once users start to use it they will find it will totally transform their workflow.This feature is also essential if you are linking an architectural model into revit mep. As you can then populate the model with spaces. I just hope in future Autodesk introduce the ability to copy rooms from the architectural model into the mep model so these can then be converted to spaces!
It would even be nicer if you could read the room-object from another file. We're seperating the project in Core & Shell and Interiors. The interiors should be able to tag, say, the electrical rooms. And not through the VG -> By Linked file (that doesn't allow you to move the tag).
I hope I'm wrong, but still only a small step; that room bounding option.
Perfect. Thank you very much Steve!
Do you know any tips for getting room bounding to persist via an attached (nested) link? Think a dorm room unit, linked into a shell building, linked into an MEP model. The dorm unit is attached into the shell. In the MEP model we see the walls and such, but room bounding does not persist.
never mind previous post. Nested unit files were found to be 1' above the level. Nested room bounding works just fine.
