If you specify the maximum current, then the trace widths will be calculated to suit.
If you specify the maximum current, then the track widths will be calculated to suit.
If you specify one of the trace widths, the maximum current it can handle will be calculated. The width for the other trace to also handle this current will then be calculated.
If you specify one of the track widths, the maximum current it can handle will be calculated. The width for the other track to also handle this current will then be calculated.
The controlling value is shown in bold.
