2. Find **Custom Div** in *Templates* subsection of the *Bootstrap 12-Grid* section in the components' pallet
3. Drag and drop the **Custom Div** component in:
   * empty space of the form, as an independent component
   * inside any other container components, **except** [Container](/guides/develop/application-design/forms/layout-management/home/b12grid.md#container), [Row](/guides/develop/application-design/forms/layout-management/home/b12grid.md#row)
4.
