Text Formatting ⇒ First chapter space has invisible header

[ErgoProxy]

Dear Community,

I need help with the following: Top spacing 20mm. My section heading is lower about 30mm to fit in an invisible header. I need to make the first page of the new section without any headings and footnotes - it works but there are additional spacing above the section name.
