Saving a copper zone settings affect outline smoothing on new non-copper zones

[Aleksandr Sh]

If you change corner smoothing settings on a copper zone, then outlines of newly-created non-copper zones seem to use these settings and, if fillet was enabled, make the outlines bezier curves.
On the screenshot there are zones with same geometry, but one was created after saving copper zone with a fillet, and the other without corner smoothing.

I am unable to recreate this.

Can you add a step-by-step instruction for how you created the image?

1. Restart pcbnew
2. Draw a zone on F.mask. This look as the one on the right
3. Create a zone on a copper layer
4. Edit copper zone settings: Set corner smoothing to 1mm fillet, press OK.
5. Draw a zone on F.mask. This one should look like the one on the left.

I attempted to follow this procedure and the polygons that I generated look correct.

Would you be able to test the 5.1.3 nightly build from https://kicad-downloads.s3.cern.ch/index.html?prefix=windows/testing/5.1/ and see if the issue is resolved for you?

If not, please attach a video of your pcbnew screen while you generate the polygons. Perhaps I am using a different procedure.

Happens in nightly too.

Thank you for the procedure. That helped!
