Creating a jumper between 2 nets.

I really hate feeling ignorant.  Other CAD packages I have used have a part available to connect two different nets together without creating a DRC error -  such as tying a digital ground and an analog ground together near a data converter.  I have tried going through the on-line manuals, searching through the editors, etc to no avail. Does Allegro Design Entry CIS/Allegro PCB Desiger support this function? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

    I have used the net short property on several designs and it does work in Allegro version 16.6.

    The have stopped using it, because the net short property is not transfered to ODB++.

    Doing netlist checkes in a third party gerber viewer comes up with net shorts, not a good thing.

    Perhaps this may be fixed in the future?
