Auto-Interactive delay tune, not working in Allegro 16.6 007

Kabal

 Hello, I am attaching a picture snapshot of constraints I created for two pinpairs. One pinpair is longer than another, I want Auto-interactive delay tune to make shorter pinpair (DIN2)  has the same length as a longer pinpair (DIN1).

 After matched group constraint is created, analyzed and reports the mismatch in length in %, I go back to PCB Editor, select Route->Auto-Interactive Delay Tune, then click on the shortest pinpair, but nothing happens, it does not get increased in length.

 And in the console I read:

Clines Selected: 1; Timing constraints: 1; Timing violations: 1; Outside ideal range: 1

 What am I doing wrong?

 

I tried with the latest release, same thing! It just does not work! 

 I also tried on another pair of signals, located near each other and with tons of space around, still does not work!!

 I even tried to increase tolerance, it simply does nothing!

Does this feature even work normally in this software, or it only works in online demonstration clips?

Or what conditions have to be met to make it work?

     well, in all movie clips about that feature, they just select signals and it just works right away, its not like they try so hard to get it done.

    However, I tried different combinations and I tried moving my cursor almost anywhere, then I decided to try same on another lines, even on another project, and it simply does not work.

    again, I even tried increasing tolerance, I tried it also in an empty space, where there are only two lines with lots of space around (so that it would be really easy do it manually), but AiDt just does not work.

     

    that is why I am wondering maybe I am missing something? What else has to be done? Maybe some another option checked?

    (I already have everything ON for electrical Modes in my constraint modes)

    what else?
