Custom Design Rules not Applied 9.0.6

So just downloaded and installed 9.0.6 (upgrading from 9.0.4).

I am still having the issue that custom design rules are not being applied, unless I move/ rotate the footprint.

Prior to rotation:

After Rotation:

I have a custom rule that only applies within a courtyard, where the clearance between LVDS signals can be less that normal to allow for routing.

I cant seem to find the topic, but I am sure this was something that was to be fixed in 9.0.6.

There is nothing about design rules in the V9.0.6 release notes:

Did you report a bug on GitLab? If you didn’t either create one or find one that matches your issue, it’s unlikely it will be fixed.

No, I didnt report it, as I just came across it and also thought it was a known issue.

I’ll have a look through known bugs.

I think the one I was thinking of was Track width not set by netclass - #9 by Quettle , where the track width was not being set by the netclass, possibly related, but appears to have been fixed.

Have just reported issue: Custom Design Rules - Not Being Applied Unless part moved/ Rotated (#22203) · Issues · KiCad / KiCad Source Code / kicad · GitLab

Also running DRC clears it as well.

Well, that was quick. Looks like its already fixed for 9.0.7.
