If I make a cube.

Then I select the top vertices, and weld them to the bottom ones, what happens to the cube, internally? Does it become a quad, or are the old faces still floating around in memory?

Or if I made the cube into a ramp object, welding over the font face only.

I think that makes sense.

hi, with the example you gave (the ramp), the front face of the cube will be removed assuming the weld is done properly. deled most likely keeps the face in memory for undo purposes but there wont be degenerate faces saved to file. if you connect the top vertices to the bottom, you'll be left with 4 vertices and 2 faces.

In the first case, the cube will end up having 2 polygons (the top and bottom). In the second case, the front polygon is, indeed, removed. So CMe is right.
