A wizard opens, showing three drop-down lists.
In the *Use Case* combo, select *Use a Petals technical service*.
In the *Petals Component* combo, select *BPEL // petals-se-bpel*.

Click *Finish*.
\\
The sketch project is created.
It contains a BPEL process that was generated from the WSDL definition...

In fact, the WSDL definition contains a lot of operations.
To make it readable, the BPEL designer switched to the horizontal layout.
