Convert assembly to a weldment

I just was upgraded to Inventor 2014. I've got an assembly that I want to convert into a weldment. The "Convert to Weldment" icon doesn't appear where it used to be in 2013. I cannot find a way to make it pop up. Is it no longer possible to use this button to convert a an assembly into a weldment?

Hi gaila,

 

Does this assembly have a Positional Representation? If so, it can not be converted to a weldment.

 

If not, do you see this behavior with all assemblies in 2014, or just this one?

 

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

Curtis,

 

Thank you for your response. No, it does not have a position representation.

Hi gaila,

 

If you look on the Environments tab > Convert panel do you see the  Convert to Weldment button?

 

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

Hi!!!

 

The "convert Weldment" button is now in the tab "Eviroments".

 

You can also place the button into the Assembly enviroment.

Curtis,

 

This is embarassing. I must have missed it during my sweep of all the buttons. Thank you for your help!
