Hello, please try this test case:

isc.DynamicForm.create({
    ID: "aForm",
    fields: [
        {
            name: "aDate", useTextField: true, type: "date", format: "dd/MM/yyyy",
            change: function (form, item, value) {
                isc.logEcho(value, isc.isA.String(value) ? "string" : "date");
            }
        }
    ]
});

When choosing a date with the DateChooser, you'll see that the value logged in the change handler is a String. Without the format, it's actually a Date.
Is it expected, or is it a bug?

It looks like there is a bug here and we'll investigate it on our end.
A quick solution to this problem would be to remove the format: "dd/MM/yyyy" in favor of dateFormatter:"toEuropeanShortDate"
(See docs here for DateItem.dateFormatter: https://smartclient.com/smartclient-....dateFormatter)

In the meantime we'll also look at why specifying the format in this way is causing problems
