Is there any way to convert a shape to a Copper Pour (more specifically 'keep out') area?

I need a pretty specific 'keep out' shape, which would not be easy to create in EasyPC itself. I have created the shape externally and brought it in via DXF import, but I cannot find a way to change it to a Copper Pour area. I use this process a lot for odd shaped board outlines.
