I am having difficulty creating copper pours in my design.

Yes I can create them but what I am observing is when I add the first pour the design is ok, when I add the second pour it wants to connect to the net of the first pour.

need a little help here.

Thanks,

Tom

Tom, when you add the outline copper pour shape, add it to the net you want the flood area to be connected to.
Do this with the second flood shape, adding it to the next net you want it to be connected to. Then everything SHOULD be ok when you pour. I suspect the two pour areas you have are (by default) connected to the same net.
If you have intersecting pour shapes, sometimes pouring them in a different order will achieve the results you want.
