Thermals on isolated vias

autodeskguest

Can anyone tell me how to apply thermals to isolated vias connecting ground

planes?  I don't want to turn on "Generate thermals for vias" option in the

DRC.  Thanks.

    You can use some restricts and ignore some errors. Unfortunately all

    wires you should create manually. With small clearance you can use some

    arcs in restrict layer.

     

    Really the option "thermals" for polygons is quite stupid because the

    general option for vias overwerites it ... only pads are affected.

     

    I don't want to turn on "Generate thermals for vias" option in the

    DRC. 

     

    Why ????? This is IMHO best way to create good boards.
