In this specific example, I want to run a 40mil trace from a pad whose width is 35mil. I can do this manually by running a 35mil trace for a very short distance and then switching to a 40mil trace, but this is time consuming. This would be something analogous to a reverse teardrop The image in the link shows the example to which I am referring. Is there a tool within the software that can do this?
