It would be nice to have a feature where you may select rather having copper Islands or Whenever a copper Island is detected in any PCB layer the editor delete them automatically, I have this Issue, its quite hard to remove the Copper Island, I can do some go arounds, like connecting those copper Islands to the grond fill, or moving the tracks to a distance where the keepout remove those islands automatically

Improve Identification of Copper Islands

I received some warnings about copper islands on my board, but I found it challenging to identify where these islands were. It would be helpful if the system could provide more precise locations or visual indicators for these warnings.

Hello :)
This is not a bug as it is, the issue I have is that there is no consistent way to remove the copper islands on my design, I tried to do some go-arounds like connecting these islands to the "GND Fill" using traces, but doing it manually its a lot of work, another thing that I tried is to reduce the keepout on the pads and TH's so that the Fill may pass between them and connect the copper Islands, but when I do the element selection using a Custom Rule Set this selection does not Override the default keepout on the pads. I'm going to leave some images in the attached files.
I hope you can help me with this Issue and figure out what can I do about it.
Best Regards.
