Summary:Technologies related to representing positions of graphical elements in a page through use of hierarchical position identifiers are described. A design canvas represents a page using zones, sections, and subsections, where a zone includes 1-m sections, and a subsection includes 1-p subsections. A position of a graphical element in a subsection is represented as a hierarchical position identifier, in the form of a tuple. The hierarchical position identifier includes an index value for a zone, an index value for a section, and an index value for a subsection. When the page is rendered, the graphical element is positioned in the page based upon its hierarchical position identifier.
