AC27 Change Marker Bug

There seems to be bug that has appeared recently in the Change Marker (Basic Change Marker 27) object. When the marker text is set to the autotext field <CHANGEID>, previously the marker would show the Change ID, as it should. Now, it seems to show the drawing's RevisionID plus some other number, leading to the marker showing what appears to be an incorrect reference. See example below. the ChangeID is 0340. the drawing's RevisionID is 06. the marker was previously showing (0340), but since the most recent archicad upgrade, it is now showing (0601)

it appears to be an issue with the autotext field itself, as changing the object from "Basic Change Marker 27" to "built-in change marker" did not fix the issue.

Operating system used: Mac Apple Silicon 15.3.1 Sequoia

here is another example, from a different project. the ChangeID is A11, but the label is showing "04 - WIP1". the drawing revision is 04 and there is no current open transmittal (hence the WIP), but where the "1" is coming from I dont know. This is Archicad 27 version 6010 AUS FULL. [UPDATE: problem also occurs with AC 27.3.2 6020, the latest version] the problem is happening on multiple projects, on multiple machines, both intel and apple silicon. I've also just noticed that when you first place the cloud and marker, it shows the correct text for about a second, before it changes to the incorrect text, as if the field is being auto-updated by something.
