    This is something weird I noticed today. I was trying to type 24/7 in a text layer, but when I did it showed 7/24. I did some tests and it did it every time, even on a completely new project, as soon as I typed any number, followed by a / or a \ and a second number, the numbers would change positions as soon as I started typing the second one (1/10 became 10/1, 700\800 became 800\700 and so on). Also, If I added a letter immediately before or after the / it won’t do it (1a/700 remains as it is, so would 1/a700) but as long as there’s a number before and after the /, it’ll be reversed

    In the end I went around it by typing 7/24 and it became 24/7, but it’s annoying.

    I’ve never come across this before. It’s the sort of thing MS Excel would do for dates. Can you make a screen recording of it? I’ve tried but can’t replicate it.
