The Fill Material Assignments dialog is accessed from the Edit - Assign Parameters by Range. This dialog allows you to assign fill material to station ranges along the alignment. The fill material will determine the fill slope angle if the Template slope is set to AUTO (see Template Editor dialog for more information).
