Attributes

Remarks

Sets the format to use for the format element with the given format element index within the previously set pattern string. The format element index is the zero-based number of the format element counting from the start of the pattern string.

Since the order of format elements in a pattern string often changes during localization, it is generally better to use the #setFormatByArgumentIndex setFormatByArgumentIndex method, which accesses format elements based on the argument index they specify.
