Namespace: Plexdata.Utilities.Formatting.Defines
Assembly: Plexdata.Utilities.Templates (in Plexdata.Utilities.Templates.dll) Version: 1.0.0

C#

public const char LiningToken = ','

Type: Char

This constant serves as start tag of the value alignment and separates it from the rest of the format statement.

Here an example of how the lining token is used.

C#

Template.Format("{0,10}", 42);
Template.Format("{SomeName,10}", 42);
Template.Format("{0,10:N2}", 42);
Template.Format("{SomeName,10:N2}", 42);

Please keep in mind, the optional value alignment must always be put in front of the optional value formatting.
