Thanks for the info, that resolved it.
I happened to find another example of the same issue here. This issue shown in the two images is the same one of a copper pour violating the clearance rules. This one was resolved with your suggestion to reduce the line width in the copper pour properties ...

Copper pour is violating its own clearance rules
Here is a minor bug(?) I've run across twice in the project I'm currently working on.
In this example, the copper pour has to curve around a corner of a pad, but it appears that the copper pour boundary that is automatically generated does not have enough edges, and this rounded corner is "bending ...

Diff Pair necking / variable trace width
https://i.imgur.com/8Nh8dtZ.png
I need to route five differential pairs out of a BGA chip.
In the example image above, I've got this diffpair that I need to route into two tight BGA pads. Due to manufacturing clearance requirements, I need to neck the highlighted part of this trace from the ...

Disconnecting and Reconnecting monitors causes a crash condition
When using DipTrace on my work computer, I am often unplugging the dock and going to meetings. When I return to my desk and plug the computer back into the dock, DipTrace schematic capture and layout editor windows completely disappear. Sometimes they will appear as tiny bars with minimize, maximize ...

Re: Almost unusable due to lag
I have had a similar problem with a compact complicated small board at a previous employer (I can no longer access the data to show the issue). Four layers, lots and lots of traces and very small parts. When the whole board is in view, panning around and clicking and doing things was very slow. I ...

Re: Solder mask missing on only one chip for seemingly no reason
I do not understand why this board will not accept all the information for this pattern. I've copied it and tried replacing the part with a copied one that does have the solder mask, I've updated from library, I created a new library with only this pattern and the PCB editor will not accept the ...

Please improve DRC
Edit: politeness (sorry)
DRC is an essential part of reducing mistakes on PCB layouts, but the DipTrace DRC has certain flaws that make it very frustrating in a wide variety of circumstances.
