Move, delete, or reshape the editing object (new editing objects cannot be added, however, except for symbols). The slab is locked and cannot be edited.

To edit the component settings of the modifier, right-click on the modifier and select Edit Slab Addition Settings or Edit Slab Subtraction Settings from the context menu. Depending on whether the modifier is a 2D or 3D addition or a subtraction modifier, the Add Shape to Slab dialog box opens, the Clip Shape from Slab dialog box opens, or the Add 3D Object to Slab dialog box opens. Choose whether the modifier affects the entire slab, or select the components it modifies. 3D clipping objects and symbols do not have any options to edit.

Exit object editing mode to return to the drawing.
