Can you create additional pools in swimlanes?

Within the UML State/Activity shape library there is a component called the "Multilane pool". It's great because it gives you a higher level title (called "pool") that covers all of the swim lanes inside. My only issue is that you can't create an additional pool only additional lanes. 

Is there a way to do this and I'm just missing it?

Hi Alberto thanks for posting in the Lucid Community! There's currently not a way to create an additional pool when working with these swim lanes. However I definitely understand how this would be useful and I've logged this request for review by our development team which utilizes feedback like this when prioritizing improvements to Lucidchart. If you'd like to share more detail about your use case or what you'd like to see in this experience we'd love to hear more in this thread or our feature request form. Thanks for your feedback and apologies for any inconvenience!

As a workaround I'd recommend adding another multiplane pool shape next to your existing one to create additional pools. 

Please let me know if you have additional questions!
