Router clearance check fails on pads that have different sizes on each layer
I have create an IC footprint where the bottom layer pads are : 2.5x1.7mm (Oval) Top layer pad : 1.7x1.7mm (oval)
When I drag a trace on the top layer (Yellow arrow) it gives me a clearance violation in the Purple section. However , when I create the trace only partially , (the Orange section) and I copy/paste that trace part (copy / paste orange trace part into the purple section) it doesn't give me the clearance violation (see highlighted track part). Also after copy/pasting (finished track) clearance check passes without any issues.
To me it looks like the real-time clearance check doesn't recognize that the top pad is smaller.
