How To Use Room Separator In Revit
When room-bounding elements do not exist at the desired boundary of a room, add a separation line to help define the room. This video provides a complete beginner-to-advanced tutorial on how to use room separation lines effectively for accurate room tagging, area calculations, and clean floor plans. How to Define and Separate Open Spaces into Individual Rooms Using Room Separators in Revit Learn how to use room separators in Revit to divide open-plan areas, assign rooms to the correct work sets, and resolve common visibility and duplication issues.
A step by step guide with screenshots showing how to split a single enclosed region in Revit to contain multiple rooms using the Room Separator tool.

The other trick marked "solved" isn't a solution at all- it's just someone reporting some random workflow, that by complete accident, caused the room separator line to appear. Serious question- has anyone at Autodesk ever worked in architecture? It seems like a crazy question.
