- When a title spans the full width or full height of a poster, its background fill color will be flush with the poster edge.
- Titles can be moved anywhere in the poster. If you move a title, everything in the title will move along with it.
- If you accidentally delete the title, you can add one back in by dragging and dropping from the Insert Content panel
- To add logos to the title, add an image block from the Insert Content panel, then select a logo from your uploads.

Sections
Sections are used to group text, images, and headers together. Common sections are Introduction, Methods, Results, Conclusion, and Acknowledgements.
