decimal format pattern does not work

[jmoore2416]

I have this decimal format pattern on numeric amount fields with two decimal places and requirement to show trailing sign:

####0.00#;####0.00-

My expectation is that the pattern will produce output that will be aligned on the decimal point.  However, this is what I get:

99999.99-     
       550.00    

I thought the hash tag (#) to the right of the positive amount (the first pattern) would produce a space but it does not.  Any clues???

CORRECTION TO POST.  THE ACTUAL PATTERN STRING IS 

<textField pattern="###0.00;###0.00-">
