  • Date format altered in text layers in new AE versions

    Writing a date (or copy-pasting from another source) makes it automatically reorder its elements.

    Text test.
    This is in the correct order.
    This is not 10/05/2022

    Example: this is the text I copied in a new text layer in ae, as you can see year, month and day are reversed. The only way of making them appear in the intended order is writing them backwards.
    I tried getting the original text with an expression but it displayed exactly the same thing as the source.

    I have no idea of what’s happening and cannot find any information online.
    This happens both in AE 22.4 and 22.5 using different fonts

    Update: unchecking “hindi digits” solves this problem entirely
