Can "outdoors" be a room?

Dear good helpers,

 

When making a room schedule (in my case lighting fixtures pr room) I would like to add the outdoors as "a room" too.

I would thus list all the interior fixtures by room, then the exterior fixtures (and they might be in different rooms to, say "front garden", "pool area" etc)

 

Can this be done? Can the outdoors (that would be the site, I guess) be a room?

Sure, draw room boundary lines if it doesn't have suitable wall boundary, and place the room.

(of course "room boundary lines" => Room Seperation lines 😉, thanks for the reminder @barthbradley )

 

Further naming of room and/or usage depends on national/regional building code or possibly BIM related agreements.

Use Room Separation Lines (Architectural tab) to define perimeters of outdoor (or indoor) areas  and then Tag away.

Thank you @barthbradley and @TripleM-Dev.net , that seems to work without any problem. I had tried it unsuccessfully in a project, but I must have messed it up. It works!
