Am I correct that a pipe route, even if the components are in the but- welded style, can't be welded?
When I go to the assembly that holds the cmponents of the routed pipe, the " turn into weldment" icon is grayed out.
I realy hope this is not as inteded, because I need to show the weldsymbols in the drawings.
As far as I know that is correct, but you can add the weld symbols manually in all of your drawings. More work? I don't know since we don't show them on ours. You might consider adding this to the Idea Station for future consideration.

That's how I see it, it would need be converted to a Weldment, which uses different "Styles" than a Tube & Pipe run. Since you can currently only have one Style for a IAM, something would break.

If you have a set gap, perhaps creating a "Weld" ipt for each of the pipe sizes. It would even show up in your BOM as "Filet Wed: 6" Pipe" or what ever you call it. It would fill the gap and show up with your weld detail as it's description.
Just a silly thought....

Hi!
Just for showcase... Why don't you export your assembly to STEP... open again in inventor and try to apply weld... just an idea.
You will lose the associativity, but you will win some pretty good images

Guess one could even try the Derive function, it would still stay linked.
