This makes it impossible to stitch two ground planes on separate layers together. There are workarounds but they are too cumbersome to use in board designs where a large number of stitches is desired.\n\nJudging from PCBnew's manual this is intended behaviour. It should, however, be considered as a misfeature as this is very basic functionality found in practically every other PCB design program."}}
