From the UML Sheet of Special Objects (left toolbar, center palette, use drop-down to select "UML"), select the UML Object object, alt text, and then place an object in your diagram.

Next, from the same UML Sheet, select the lifeline object, alt text, and place it in your diagram. Then connect the lifeline's uppermost line handle to the UML Object placed in the last step.

Use the UML Message object, alt text, to connect one lifeline to another.

Right-click on the lifeline to adjust the lifetime of the object, or to add or remove connection points.
