Now I'm confused. I've ended up with some of the tracks showing a
polygon clearance of 10 mil (in an object report) whilst others show 5
mil. After a little experimentation it seems that if I draw a track
manually using the "signal" style (with "clearance" set to 10 mil and
line width set to 10 mil) I get 10 mil spacing between the edge of my
track and the polygon. If I autoroute using the same style I get 5 mil
spacing between the edge of the track and the polygon. Should they be
different, and if so, why?
