Is there anyway to wrap welds in Inventor?

RE: Welds in Inventor 2010

Depends on what "wrap" means.  My guess is probbably - but post example and be sure.

Not quite sure how to post an example :(. but maybe I can try and explain, when attempting to weld a 3 sides of a piece,  I choose the surfaces to be welded but at the end where 3 surfaces meet, the welds are not connected to each other. it kind of leaves a space. best explaination I got unfortunatly.

Put the assembly into a folder.
In Windows Explorer right click on the folder and select Send to Compressed (zipped) Folder.

So the corners are missing?

If you create the weld in one operation it will be continuous. i.e. select all 3 faces for bead face 1 and the face you are attaching to for bead face 2.
