CUSTOM RULE IN ALLEGRO CM TO SUM WIDTH OF MULTILPLE SEGMENTS OF THE SAME NET

Hi all,

Consider the figure below.

The yellow Cline is carrying a certain amount of current. Due to spacing constraints, its width must be reduced. However, multiple, thinner, Clines must be used to make sure that enough current is brought to the destination pin. 

Is there a way to implement a custom rule that controls if the sum of multiple Clines (in this case the thinner yellow clines) is greater than or equal a specified width?

This rule to make sure that the total width (given by the sum of the thinner width) is enough to tolerate a certain amount of current.

Any other suggestion is well accepted.

Gianmarco

    Would it be possible to pour copper shapes in those places?
