Use this property to control the number of the first heading.

Since version 3.0 this is a string value to define the heading in the form of point-separated digits. Each digit stands for the sequence value of a heading number at the given level. For instance 4.2 refers the sequence number 4 on the first (h1) and 2 on the second level (h2). Prior to version 3.0 the value for this property has been a single digit to define the first level heading.

Since 4.5

 

Since version 4.5 a value of '*' derives the start number from the page's position within its siblings.

Please note that the value is independent from the .
