Subject: Thermal relief

Hi,
Thanks for replying to my last query. I was reading the FAQs and realised that a thermal relief must have 4 spokes; however, in some cases due to the pitch of the connector OrCAD is unable to connect all 4 spokes to the plane. Consequently, Layout will only create 2 or just 1 spoke. This happens even if I specify the thermal relief to have 4 spokes.
Is such a thermal relief manufacturable?

Thanks in advance,
Paul Zammit.
