Thanks for this tips, but it is a workaround.
It avoids DRC but not future errors as it is not electrically controlled.
In fact I forgot to tell that we used to do such methods but it can later on a
new revision generate a short-circuit or something like.
So we think it is not secure.. And then we would need something safer, if
possible....

Hi William,
In allegro menu
1.Setup/Subclass/Board geometry/
Create a layer called "GND_SHORT"
2.Add/line
under Board geometry/Gnd_short layer(Here you need to add a line width of 50
mil with required length where the agnd and dgnd gnds generating point)
3.In the manufacturing /artwork/Film Control
select your gnd layer.art (plane layer)film and add the subclass layer
"gnd_short" under the class board geometry(Set it in the Gerber level)
I hope this may help without generating DRC.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] DGND/AGND merge point
Hello All.
Quite often, a board contains both AGND and DGND and the customer asks us
to connect them together on a single point on the board, like GND pin of a
connector.
Does anybody know how to do it in Allegro without generating DRCs errors?
Thanks in advance.
William.
