Signal
A signal needs to be defined for the signal intermediate throw event to emit when it is reached. A previously used Signal can be selected from the drop-down list in its properties, or a new one can be created by clicking the + symbol. A Signal name can then be set.
Signals can be restricted to the process instance they are thrown in, or be global in scope. The scope of a global signal is restricted to the project they are used in.
