Combining C# String.Format format options

Question

I'd like to format my number as a percent value with an always visible sign.

To format it as a percent value I can do:

string.Format("{0:P2}", 1.45);

For visible signs I'll do:

string.Format("{0:+#.##;-#.##;0}", 1.45);

Any way to combine the two?

Answer 1

You probably just want to add % to custom format:

string.Format("{0:+#.##%;-#.##%;0}", 1.45); // output +145%
