I'm preparing residential design and documentation and a particular wish list item is to be able to describe a room size in terms of width and depth - obviously this can be achieved with a text annotation however the process of measuring distances, typing text, checking and review is not infallible. Has anyone experimented with a family that could generate such information.

I don't know of a way to do this yet... Try posting it in the wishlist forum and you might get your wish in the next release of Revit.

i was wanting to do the same thing. it seems like revit should be ablwe to do it. if it can find the area of a room why can't we just have the a length x width number it could search out and give us the ability to set how far we want it to recognize the units of the room. i have been so busy with our plan convesion i havn't tried it yet but it would be nice.

I think part of the problem might be that you could have any shape of room and it might confuse the software if its anything other than a rectangle...
