How to force a program to start sandboxed?

In Sandboxie-Plus you can find the option to force programs into a sandbox at Sandbox Options > Program Control > [Force Programs]. There you can add processes to be forced into this box.

For Firefox, you could also enable the template to force it into the sandbox. Sandbox Options > App Templates > "Force Mozilla Firefox into this sandbox".

Unfortunately, the documentation is lacking and lagging behind. If one is familiar with Sandboxie (Classic), there is a guide about where things moved to in Sandboxie-Plus.
 
My view of Sandbox Options > Program Control does not include "Force Programs" (screenshot attached) and Sandbox Options > App Templates does not have "Force Mozilla Firefox into this sandbox" (screenshot attached).

To open the Sandbox Options, you have to right-click on the sandbox and select the "Sandbox Options" in the right-click menu. You can also double-click the Sandbox, as the default action is to open its settings.

With the menu at the top, you can only open the Global Settings, controlling how the user-interface and Sandboxie behave in general, but each sandbox can be configured individually.
