 This determines the value for the first instance of the object or the first instance of the “group” of instances. The default value is taken from the Value Range defined for the number (if undefined 1 is used). You can also specify an attribute that will hold the initial value. This determines the value for the first instance of the object or the first instance of the “group” of instances.
