Etching layer gives more detail, and because of that the logo can be
smaller.
Another interesting thing is that if I create two dummy-net shapes with
clearance less than my design minimum I also get DRC.
However, if I assign them to GND and then back to dummy, the DRC goes away.

Consider placing it on a non etch layer e.g. silk top

Greetings everybody,
I have a company logo created as a mechanical symbol using shapes on the top etch layer. When I place the symbol onto my board it gives me a DRC error because some of the shapes are too close to each other (even though the same-net DRC is turned off). To remove the DRC error, after I place the symbol, I manually reassign the shape to some other valid net like GND and after that I reassign it back to a dummy net (back to what it was). That clears my DRC errors.
Does anybody know of any way to create a symbol such that the DRC error would not be in the first place. I just hate to go and reset the net assignment every time I place the symbol.
