About user formats

This page explains the specifications for "user format" number formats.

 

In the user format, users can add their own formats by registering format settings in the NumberFormatConf root property.

You can also freely customize the behavior of the default format by overriding the system default format (@NUMBER), ISO format (@ISO), ANSI format (@ANSI), etc. in the user format definition.

 

 

 

 

User format specifications

■ Basic specifications

 

[@number format name]

Property name = Setting value

First, when defining a user format, enclose the numeric format name in [ ]. The format name written within [ ] must begin with "@".

 

Then, after the line that defines the number format name, write the property = setting value on each line.

If you want to add multiple formats, you can create a new section in [ ] and define them one after the other.
