Problem using autovia with custom standardViaDefs

I have a problem using auto-via. I have seen some similar problems on this forum, but none of the solutions seem to work.

The vias I want to use must be compliant with DFM rules, so the standard via defs are not DRC clean.
I have created new standardViaDefs with the correct spacing/enclosure, and a constraint group where only the DFM standardViaDefs are valid.

I start the autovia command, the constraint group is set to DFM, but still the vias have smaller spacings and enclosures as defined in standardViaDefs. They seem to be taken from the techno rules.

What is wrong here?

My CDS version is ICS6.1.7-64b.500.8

This is hard to tell without seeing the constraint setup - there's a lot of complexity as to how constraints can be inherited, and assigned to different objects.

So please contact customer support - we'll be much more able to help you that way.
