2D Area Tool is an abomination and a remnant from a bygone era. To be more in line with a holistic BIM approach, rework the Area tool to be the same as Room/Space tools.
- A volume that can autodetect Walls as bounding elements.
- The ability to contain Rooms/Spaces within.
- An Area is to a Room what an Apartment is to a Livingroom.
The technology is clearly there with Rooms/Spaces. The need is obvious, as Areas are an indispensable part of Revit right now.
Thank you.
