I've installed Ubuntu 20 and the current version of Geany. When I press Shift+Alt+D, the date is always in the `DD.MM.YYYY` format.
This doesn't match my regional settings (English/Canada, trying to get the system to output YYYY-MM-DD), or the setting in Geany:

The manual says about the date setting shown above:
``` Date Specify a format for the {date} wildcard. ```
in templates, not for insert date.
See `Menu->Edit->Insert Date`.
Closed #2505.
Thanks @elextr, I've set the format via Edit -> Insert date -> Set custom date format.
A bit confused about what "Templates" meant in that dialog, and who uses software manuals noawadays for text editors? :)
