Yes I'm drawing a polygon on a trace layer.

When filled (pressing the S key) it does short to everything on that
layer.  That is what I want to happen.  Finding the S key helped me do what
I wanted it to do.  I still have to draw the polygon somewhere else, fill
it, then move it to where I want it shorted.  I could find no way of
drawing it where I wanted it without having it disappear. and give me the
warning I reported in an early email.
