Your chosen activity type appears on the diagram already connected with a connection from the source you clicked on to initiate the process. By default, it is named New, so use the Property Editor to change its name to something more meaningful. Here, you name it D. Since the source activity is a Switch, the new connection line is red to let you know some configuration adjustment is needed.
