I think I figured it out. What I did was just create a clearance rule for those two specific net names for the 2 pads. Then I just connected the pour with copper fills. It's not real pretty but I think it will work.
Thanks Ian for your help.

I've created a sch component and a foot print with two pads 0.01mm apart. The pads have the same net names as the polygon pours. When I place the footprint where I want the neck the polygons just pour around the 2 pads. How do I name the 2 pads something different so the 2 polygons will be able to connect?

Then track your neck in and out of these pads as you wish. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
