Yep.. I tried that and it does not allow negative values.

Have you tried using negative values for the oversize?

Basically I have a 1247 pin BGA with 8 different voltages that require external positive shapes connecting to them on the bottom side. In these cases I was able to change the via to shape clearance to 5 mils to allow shape to flood around the vias. The dynamic shapes parameter form only give me the ability to oversize the clearance not undersize it which I need. I could add a Constraint Area but I have been trying to stay away from them because of all the related problems with using them. Any ideas.
