Sure it does. Sixth paragraph under Class Overview: "Argument index. Normally, each format specifier consumes the next argument to format. For convenient localization, it's possible to reorder arguments so that they appear in a different order in the output than the order in which they were supplied. For example, "%4$s" formats the fourth argument (4$) as a string (s)." -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
