Installed without any trouble. I opened a demo board and rerouted one track
through copperpour (zone) Copperpour would not back off. No amount of
refreshing, zooming, saving and reopening would get rid of the short.

Opened Help. Although it is indexed there is on search function.

Needs work. Will try again in about a year.
