square polygon copper pours over the trace ends?
Are you doing this for SMD solder yield? Or, is this a multi-gigahertz routing practice I just found out about a month ago?

Try selecting and deselecting "Connect line endcaps" under the Setup-Design Parameters-Display menu. See if that does the trick for you.

I was wondering why other Microwave/RF designers didn't suggest this, then I realized...
That option doesn't appear to give us the option to plot artwork with a square draw. It does speed up display redraws.
