6.0 Zone filling differences

 

I believe we now have a warning, but I can’t remember what change it was for.  I thought it was for the outline changes, but from what I can find on the mailing list archive it looks like we were satisfied that one wouldn’t change anything.

So remind me what the warning is for?

The reason behind this request is that I have a new fill algorithm which fixes a long-standing bug regarding one pad’s thermal ring knocking out another pad’s thermal spoke.  It also allows thermal spokes on custom pad shapes (and would allow us to support custom number of spokes if we wished).

While this should only change zone fills which would have been considered errors in the past, it nevertheless changes them.  What’s the prescription for that?

Cheers,
Jeff.
