Why the date on a drawing is in mm/dd/yy format? It is confusing (I.e. what does 11/02/yy mean?). Is it adjustable or is it a ISO norm?

Hi,

When implementing the title block we used the American standard for the date, which is as you wrote: mm/dd/yyyy. We are already working on an improved title block in which you will be able to adjust the content of the cells, so stay tuned and check our updates around the end of October.

Ah… Americans… wrong dates, imperial measurements, … all but ISO 😂

But, thanks for the good news!
