Assigning copper pour to a net

Hello all,

I have another pretty simple question. I want to fill the top layer of my board with copper pour. The way I tried to do it was I took the board outline and did a Z-Copy and contracted the board outline a little and made that dynamic copper. This works perfectly but the copper is not assigned to any net. I can't seem to figure out how to assign this to a net. I'm sure it's simple but I can't seem to find where to do this. The options menu doesn't have the net field like it does when you're creating the pour from a shape.

Hopefully that made sense.

Thank you!

I'm on 16.3 which doesn't seem to support that. That does seem like a more intuitive way to do it, but I guess until we upgrade I'll just have to do it the other way.
