I created a floor using a floor type containing a structural deck profile. However I did not initially create the floor as a "Structural Floor". Now I try to apply a span direction symbol, and it's acting like it doesn't want to place the symbol on the slab. If I click on "Auto Place" it doesn't highlight the floor as a valid object.

I checked the floor's properties, and it appears identical to a structural floor created off to the side. The Structural Usage property of both floor is "Slab" and is grayed out so I can't change it. I don't see any property that defines a floor as structural, non-structural, etc.

Is there anything I can do to avoid having to re-create the floor and re-join all the walls to it?

*edit* nevermind, I'm blind.... it was the Structural instance property check box. :p
