None of the above - both of your test segments were attached to the same net - I suggested that copper which had been on the same net _did_ respond properly to global ops, but copper on previoulsy different nets didn't. > I took an old test pcb which had an 0805 footprint on it with both pads > assigned to GND.

Hmm - the description seems to have been as accurate as possible without attaching the project. I do try hard to report possible bugs accurately - it's an important issue, and since Protel normally does work, the bugs tend to be in the less-used sections of the program. I don't think I've called a bug falsely yet...
