Denotes the output is to be formatted in an alternate form. The definition of the alternate form is determined by the Formattable. This flag corresponds to '#' ('#') in the format specifier.

public static final int LEFT_JUSTIFY

Added in API level 1

Denotes the output is to be left-justified. In order to fill the minimum width requirement, spaces(' ') will be appended at the end of the specified output element. If no such flag is set, the output is right-justified. The flag corresponds to '-' ('-') in the format specifier.
