Connecting Planes To Pads

Fras

Hello,

I have attached a screenshot from my workspace so that this becomes easier to explain.

I created a ground plane so that my surface mount padstacks can be connected to this plane to reduce the number of ground wires. The problem arises because PCB Editor is telling me to connect the grounds on either side of the board. This makes no sense to me and I'm wondering if anyone has an idea of how to fix this?

Thanks

    UPDATE:
    Sorted it out. Used global parameters to reduce the anti-etch/thermal to 0.1 MILLIMETRES. I had 5 set in the anti etch so it was clearing the whole placed rectangle. Thank you for your help guys.
