Thanks, DJ.

What design rules does Auto-Optimize use?

    1) Signal|Power|Fat|Skinney->Route Styles?
    2) File->Preferences->Sizes->Design Rule Checking?
    3) File->Load vendor resource file?

I have had some, (very infrequent,) issues with iterated Auto-Optimize
creating DRC issues, and am suspicious of conflict(s) between the
three ways of specifying line width and clearance, etc.

    Thanks,

    John
