Setting to turn off automated lists

In Danish we write dates like this:

1. januar = January 1
2. juni = june 30

I am currently designing a bank app with A LOT of “first of the month” dates … and every single time it converts the date into a list. I am going insane about this.

Lol … same problem here it seems … I wrote 30. juni and it autocorrected it to 2.

Yeah. Um. I’m really growing tired of the over auto-this, and auto-that we seem to be baking into our apps. This era of “predictivity” is starting to interfere with being able to work efficiently; not to mention a form of crowd control which goes against the very nature of creativity. I can’t believe Figma just assumed everybody would need/want to detect a 1. as a bullet and auto format! This predictive feature is more annoying and time consuming than it is helpful.

I think turning auto format on / of would fit nicely into this little preference menu:

Although I find it mostly useful. If I really struggle with something like writing dates, I add some special character in front (eg. writing “+1. January”) and when I’m done with all entries I remove the special chars with some plugin like “change text”. Also just hitting CMD+Z is not the worst experience…

Please, Figma team, add the option to toggle auto formatting on/off! It’s a nightmare when writing dates, especially in languages like Czech or Slovak where we write dates with periods and use spaces between D and M (= 24. 12. 2023). Please!

It is also a nightmare when you type “!=” and get “≠”. And there’s no Cmd + Z for it!
It’s a Python snapshot, seems like Figma thinks it knows better, but it really doesn’t.

Please, turn or rip off this feature forever

Also double dash that turns into “—” makes a lot of trouble for me

This is not a replacement, this is a ligature in the font YOU chose to use. You can turn off ligatures here:

Or change the font. You are cursing font designers now for no reason, Figma has nothing to do with this.

Thank you!
I must say sorry to Figma guys
