I agree there is  a defect that  needs correcting as the behaviour should be

the same for the Top and Bottom layers.

I wish to point out an error with your package design.

You drew a rectangle around your text using a zero width wire, placing it on

the tRestrict layer.

That had no effect as the area under the zero width wire has no area. The

ratsnests you performed revelaed this.

Had you wanted the copper text within a  rectangle clear of copper you

should have formed the rectangle with the RECTANGLE tool

Hi Warren

The reason the tRestrict layer appears to have not taken effect is because the flood fill polygon had isolate set to 0, also orphan was enabled. I prefer to use tRestrict wires to completely enclose an area instead of rectangles or polygons because I don't want the area to appear shaded. If this is not a recommended practice, then let me know.

Regardless of that, I made my point. I hope this gets fixed.

Have a look at the actual logo

The logo image looks unconventional to me.

The top flood fill has an edge shape that mimics a clearance from the text

on the bottom layer. It may be what you intended

So what object is the top flood fill keeping away from?

it's keeping away from the text on the bottom layer

that is definitely not my intention

my video clearly demonstrated that it's indeed a serious bug

I have notified our developers of the bug, and forwarded your link to

them. Thanks for the info, these bug reports have proven to be

instrumental in getting EAGLE back to it's normal robustness. Thank you

again for continuing to use EAGLE.

Hi Frank

Can you tell me the name of the software you used to make the video.

Thanks

Hi Frank,

Turns out the bug has already been corrected in the latest beta 6.1.2.

Thanks for your feedback.
