Hi,

I think you are wrong.
This changes the mask clearance around vias and pads. Traces are covered by 
the mask.
It is not possible to set the mask clearance in the module editor since it is 
not a pad property, but a circuit one.
I do not know if it is possible with other programs, with Kicad we only can 
set one mask clearance for the whole circuit.

Pedro.
