Empirically, I see that the error message is in error so my problem is solved.
But here is the link to the German post:

I have just done a 4 layer PCB layout with KiCad and am trying to make the inner plane layers. I click on the Add Filled Zones button on the right tool bar and the cursor changes to the pen shape. Then I go to draw the zone outline and click. The Zone Properties dialog pops up. I select the net that I want connected to the copper plane (GND for example) and click OK. An Error box pops up that says "Thermal relief spoke width is large than the minimum width". This is unexpected because the previous Zone properties dialog says that the Miniumum Width is 0.0080" and the Spoke Width is 0.0060". I did a Google search on this error and it turned up a forum discussion from several years ago on this issue but it is unfortunately for me posted in German. Does anyone have a clue as to what this error message is trying to tell me?
Hi,
I don't know about your actual problem, but if you have a link with the
German post I could translate/summarize it for you.
Regards,
Oli
