Hello, THANKS! The POLYGON command and naming it with the name of the signal works beautifully. I am drawing the POLGON on either the TOP or BOTTOM layer. Now, in order to keep the autorouter from cutting a trace through the POLYGON I am trace over it with another POLYGON on layer tRestrict or bRestrict. Is this the appropriate way to do this?
