Can you place points to modify sub elements at a "foundation" slab.  The Shape Editing tool dose not come up when I highlight the foundation slab.  I know you can do it at "floor" slabs.

You mean a structural floor?  Yes you can, i still get all the options.  You'll need to tell us more about what your doing, what version of Revit, do you have all the updates installed?

Not a structural floor, a "Foundation Slab" found in the foundations Tab.  I am using R13

A foundation slab is just a slab, all you can do is add a slope arrow.  I personally would use a structural floor over a slab unless you need if for some sort of scheduling reason.

That’s what I thought.  I wonder why Revit is set up like this.  If any slab needs to nave sub points it’s a foundation slab.  An example would be a slab on grade sloping to multiple floor drains.

This may really be a terminology problem.  We don't consider slabs on grade to be foundation slabs.  They are just another floor.  Actually, I don't know of anyone here referring to foundation slabs.  We have matt foundations for large areas that may have multiple elements loading them.  If structural items "sit" on a SOG, then we might have reiforced areas for that or thickened slab areas but we still consider this to be a floor and model accordingly.
