I’m trying to modify my local currency to display more like USD (without the ISO CCY code prefix).

I changed the format to be “%n” and I found that the preview looked odd “$123,456.78 / $-123,456.78”. I would have expected “-$123,456.78” for negatives.

This is probably a low priority because negative numbers are seldom used and positive numbers normally don’t have a sign.

Thank you for the feedback. It's a translation issue.
We'll change that for next release.
