I'm new to this forum. What software pkg. are you using ? I use PADS 5.01 and PCAD2002 and I don't recognize the term "gloss".
Thanks,
Sandy

I seem to recall that gloss wouldn't touch nets having certain
types of constraints. I believe it was any kind of delay (length)
controls.

This is a bit crude, but you could make a copy of the .brd file
and in the copy, strip any delay constraints, run gloss, then
clip the diff pair routes into the constrained .brd file. You
might find you have to delete any diff pair uncoupled length and
phase tolerance info also.

No guarantees on this as I have not glossed routes since v14.

I have been unable to get the gloss routine to change the 45's to arcs
on the diff-pairs.  It works on the non-diff-pair connections.  Anybody
know the secret?
