I had been increasing the line width of a few traces and little else. I quit the tool hoping for some resolution as I had seen some errors related to incorrect serial numbers on undo’s. I saved and restarted as the tool advised so undoing to get back to square one is not an option. I have looked at most of the errors flagged. They are all in an area where both top and bottom layers (2.4Ghz, 2 layers) can be used as ground planes. Many of the traces have never had a connection to either plane and furthermore I did not touch them in the final edit session. Others have always been connected to the ground plane via a join(on top) followed by a via to both sides using thermal tool to connect to both planes. I think DRC is lying to me. Have looked for hours but cannot find what is going on. The only difference in the pieces of the polygons I can find is that the object report for most is “clearly, selected,fullpoly” while one other piece includes “found”. Can someone throw me a idea? Running PCB 4.2.2 on Ubuntu 19.10. Thanks in advance, Roger Traylor
