How Do I Place Text on a Model?

Question: I understand that I can label elements within my process model, but I've seen others and it looks like I should be able to place a text box somewhere on the model. But I just can't figure it out.

Answer: The only way to add text to a process model in Camunda Modeler is to label elements, or by using the Annotation element. By double clicking on an element, you can access the text editor and create labels. Note that some elements don't have designated areas for text (e.g. events, flows, gateways), so their labels appear next to them. You can customize the position of these labels by clicking and dragging the associated text box. By using your arrow keys, you can precisely adjust the position of the labels.
