What is the easiest way to edit a slab contour geometry? I need to extend the perimeter of the slab 11 1/2 inches to the outside, but when i select the contour defenition under the geometry section of the panel i have to edit the geometry a coordinate at a time. Even when i try I can't get the result i want. Any suggestions?
thank you,
Oved

The another possibility is to select the panel and press the right mouse button. After selecting Object Properties you can change the coordinates of the points that define the contour you want to edit.

You can do this by adding a control point at the point where you want to edit the slab. This can be done by:
1) Adding a line (Geomtry>Objects>Polyline-Contour..) then chose a line and draw it over the slab in Plan mode as opposed to 3D
2) Draw the line and select both the slab and the line then choose intersect comand in Edit menu
3) Now you have the intersection
4) Delete the line
5) You will have a control point at the slab which you can move freely
You may also consider this approach (using the Spider Pro add-in https://apps.autodesk.com/RSA/en/Detail/Index?id=964813656627065816&appLang=en&os=Win64😞
