I have two nets. I am using Polygon pour as one of the 2 nets. At certain region I want the clearance between those nets as 0.3mm and for the rest I want 0.5mm.

I tried Room definition but dont know how to proceed.... I tried putting many Design->Rules->Electrical-> Clearance Rules. I defined the special region as polygon. It still does not work.

Below is what I want to achieve. How can I do it?

 

hi
you can use a short straight trace with clearance 0.3mm and then pour your polygon with the clearance 0.5mm (i am assuming that ground Net is your polygon)

see attached picture

Yes the pour is Ground net. I drew a track like you have mentioned in the posted figure and made a clearance rule in Design->Rules->Electrical-> Clearance Rules
(InNet('Ground') AND IsTrack AND Not(InPolygon ))
gave it a clearance of 0.3mm and kept it most prior rule, the less prior rule is InNet('Feed') and its clearance is 0.52mm

and it worked. thanks a bunch!
