So, here's two more questions:

1. I just converted the anchor points to dots (thank you, thank you), but before I start the numbering, I want to have an idea of how many dots I'm looking at here. Is there a way to count objects to see how many objects are within an illustration... or if I go back to the anchor points, a way of determining how many anchor points are within an object?

2. Secondly, I saw somewhere that you could apply code to numbers so that when you add an additional number, it automatically becomes the next highest number. Because there's approximately 1,000 dots in this illustration, it would be very helpful if each number I add automatically is the next highest.

Thanks again.
