Summary

The update to the Timer Device in 33.00 has introduced a text formatting error for all default timer styles including the CurrentTime text field in the CreativeTimerViewModel.

Previously the seconds displayed after the colon would have a leading zero for values smaller than 10. Since the update the leading zero is missing.
