Polygon ground pour ignoring thermal option

I have poured a polygon with the GND net, and it properly connects the part pins that should be grounded. My problem is that whether I check or uncheck the Thermals option and repour, the pins are still entirely flooded with the ground pour rather than creating the thermal connections.

Does anyone know what could be causing this? Thanks

I forgot to mention that the parts's pads in library editor show the thermal option checked.

Hello,

Hi,

got your email meanwhile and looked into the board file. The GND polygon you drew in the bottom layer has the Thermals option switched off. Please check the properties of the polygon and set the option. Then it works.
Regards,
Richard

Thank you Richard. I was certain that I checked this, but I may have been looking at the wrong polygon or left it unchecked and changed a lot of my DRC since I originally asked for help. Regardless, I did as you showed and it works for me now too. Thank you for your help.
