I need to format a float to the format +-00.00, tried the basic string formatting but can’t get the leading + or – sign or two leading 0s if the value is fractional, any pointers?

Use
'%+06.2f'to set the width and precision appropriately. The equivalent using new-style format strings is'{:+06.2f}'.format(n)(or'{0:+06.2f}'if your version of Python requires the positional component).
