Shared Views - Weldments and Machining

[karthur1]

Shared Views is an excellent idea.... but why can I not publish my Weldments? In Inventor when I try to create a shared view of my weldment, it is greyed out and not accessible. Shared Views are great but we missed the mark here.

I can publish other iams, but not a weldment.  We also need to be able to show the weldment in the preparations, welds, and machined state so its easier for everyone to see what is going on.

Thanks

I just tried the workflow in Inventor 2026.  I can publish my weldment in a shared view, but it is only in the finished "Machined" state. This is better than 2024 that I was originally working in, where we could not even publish in Shared Views.

We need to be able to show the model in the "Preparations", "Welds" and "Machined" state.

Thanks
