I like that the sequence number is added to the title in the display but have noticed that if i have a seq number such as `1.2.0` then the trailing 0 is stripped from it to leave `1.2.`. Could the full number specified be included in the display?
For additional context, i am trying to set up Notenik to manage release notes for various products.
(and as a side note / quick question…if i have a seq that is formatted like `1-2-1` then it gets transformed in the display title to `1.2.1` (which i like!). Am wondering if that variable modification is available to me in an output template?)

I’ll have to work a bit on preserving the trailing 0 – I like the idea of having an option, though.
You could try the [word demarcation](https://notenik.app/knowledge-base/EPUB/html/word-demarcation-c.html) variable modifier and see if that works to do what you want, in terms of dashes vs. periods.
