- You will see a box in the bottom left pop up where you can give your Zone a name, give it a fill and border color, and click "Apply" to save.![new one fill 1](https://support.cognosos.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/new%20one%20fill%201.png?width=199&height=264&name=new%20one%20fill%201.png)

**Helpful Tip**: When drawing zones that are adjacent to each other, draw them so there is no gap in between zones to ensure full coverage.
