The weld is built from the root outward: root land, root fill, fills, hot pass and upper fill, each with an angle and height, plus the top and bottom cap and the heat-affected zone width. The preview shows the bevel to scale and the zones generated from it.
If the bevel does not close (for example, the fills are taller than the part), a message names the problem so you can correct the heights or angles.
