Hi Lorenzo, I believe the clearance used is the one set in the module properties. When creating a new module, it seems to be set at 0, and so it has been chosen to display a default of 0.254. However if you set a non-zero clearance in the module properties, it seems to be used for all pads which have a zero clearance in their own properties, accessed by editing the pad and going in the "Local Clearance and Settings" tab. A newly created pad also seems to have a local clearance of 0, therefore displaying with the setting in the module properties. I have found this out purely by playing with KiCad. If I am wrong, please someone correct me.
I am not aware of any other global setting from which the 0.254 could come though, and what puzzles me now that you mentioned it, is that in the module properties it still says the clearance is local and that setting to zero will default to global?
