Keys for Number Patterns
This section lists the resource keys for formatting values in number controls.
The number control shows resource keys that begin with "format_". You can override their values, and also add new keys that begin with "format_".
Note: For these resource keys, the number grouping separator is always represented as the comma meta-character, and the decimal separator is always represented as the period meta-character. The actual grouping and separator characters are translated separately, exactly once. It is not necessary to translate these grouping and separator meta-characters at every place where they appear.
For more information on how to specify a number format, see Numeric Controls.
