[issue20811] str.format for fixed width float can return a string longer than the maximum specified

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah added the comment:

aubmoon: Would it be a possibility just to use 'f' instead?

>>> "{:+10.7f}".format(1.12345678)
'+1.1234568'
>>> "{:+10.7f}".format(0.12345678)
'+0.1234568'
