Split does not "split" potential

I just noticed that using split has no effect on the potential of a copper-strip.
Making the standard split a bit wider on one side does the trick.

Well, I see the behavior in your picture, but I wasn´t able to reproduce this myself in a project.
There might be an accidental connection of "gray" somewhere (outside of the picture), perhaps?
Any advice how to reproduce this effect? Please attach or send file.

It looks like, that there were copper eyes hidden beyond the tracks? These might cause the effect, perhaps.
In that case remove the redundant copper eyes, please. Use copper track and drilling elements only, for this kind of layout.
Do not combine tracks with redundant copper eyes, but use drillings instead.

I 'm sorry, it was my mistake. :oops:
The board I designed consisted of tracks and pads. I redesigned it with only pads at the ends and tracks with holes between them.
Everything is OK now. Even the smallest split will split the potentials now.
