flood-fill will just end up putting them back - i'd have to set a copper-to-trace separation @ 15mil as well.
Isn't there a option to create barriers or free form where the floodfill may not come, white spaces so to speak. Seems to me there should be.
there is..... however that would mean having to maintain an exact and specific mirror of the exact path of the traces, whereby any changes *to* the exact and specific path of the traces would require a corresponding, exact, specific and precisely and without fail 100% matching change to that area.
total pain in the ass in other words.
... on the other hand simply changing *one parameter* in the design rules achieves the exact same result... done dynamically and with no fuss.
You should be able to create "white" spots on the GND planes for various reasons.
indeed.
