Box

You can use the box as a background to visually summarize elements.

Create box

You will find the box in processes in the "Elements" area. It belongs to the "Other elements" category. From there, it can be inserted at the desired point in the process chain using drag & drop and then configured. General information about creating process items can be found here.

Once you have created the box on the workspace, open the properties dialog by double-clicking on the element.
