Hello @mdichkou.

Could you attach a screenshot / mockup to your post to provide additional context? It is not clear to me whether you’d want to show the documentation in an extra panel, on the diagram or wherever.

Still not 100% sure what you’d like to accomplish.

But may be worth checking out the commenting extension that displays comments read from extension elements and properly maintains them during editing.

You could also use the BaseElement#documentation native BPMN way to attach documentation.
