Hi everybody!
As the title suggests, I am writing a poster and I want to enumerate the blocks. I am using the Jacobs Landscape Poster and I'd like to have a small number at the bottom right. I need this template because is so clear, but I was told the block in the middle make kind of confusion on the order, then I want to enumerate all the blocks and make it clear.
Thank you very much!

Re: How to enumerate the blocks in a poster
Welcome,
if the order in which to read the blocks is clear depends on the layout of the blocks, little numbers will only help a little.
How is the current setup of your poster?

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Hi!
I didn't change any blocks of the original one (okay, of course I wrote down my texts instead of Lore ipsum..). I was just told the blue block in the middle is a little bit confusing. One does not know where to look exactly after that.

Hi Barbara,
welcome to the forum!
Perhaps post your code here. I would test it to see how to enumerate.
I just did not find the time to search for the "Jacobs Landscape Poster" and to create an example myself. If you already have code, simply post it. That's easier for all.

Of course! Thank you!
P.s.: I am new, so I don't know exactly if there is a better way to post it. Anyway, here there is =)
