Allegro automatically creates large place-bound

Hello,


I am using Allegro 16.6-2015 and am making a symbol consisting of a single through-hole pad. In my .dra file I create the symbol with the associated placebounds (circles almost the same size as the pad.) However, when I place the component into my board it comes with another, much larger square placebound. I do not have this placebound in my .dra file and do not understand why it is there at all. I can delete this placebound but it comes back when I update the symbol. Where is it coming from/what do I do to keep it from appearing?

Component as seen in .dra file (the has top and bottom placebounds that are as big as soldermask.):


Component when placed in .brd file (huge yellow placebound created by allegro - the smaller ones that I made are still there!)

Thank you,
