I have a simple 2d design that was constructed using several line segments. I have not been able to figure out how to weld the individual segments into one singe segment. When I extruded the item it left a hollow void. Only the lines extruded when it was suppose to extrude to a .125" plate. Any ideas what im doing wrong here?
It's usually best to supply a sample image/.cdr file for us to see more clearly. Other than that, have you combined the lines, joined the nodes together, then filled the void with a color and perform the extrude afterwards?
You don't want to weld line segments together. The way to join them is first select and "combine" them and then use your shape tool to join the nodes.
(Edit) Sorry, I just read Mikes's comment more carefully and realized that I repeated what he already had said...

True enough in Draw, but does CorelCad work the same way? Isn't dwg the native format?
You can try setting the "Enable Node Tracking" Option ON. It will track the nodes even if you are using a pick tool. Not the exact result as you expect but a workaround.
