In Draw 9-patch, everything looks fine. However, my SDK says the 9-patch png is malformed. Because I have something like an 11-patch png. Because I don’t want the little grabbing area to be scaled. How to get it working? The screenshot describes everything:

    I believe your issue is that you’re splitting the content area into two pieces which is not allowed. The top and left borders are treated differently by the tool than the bottom and right borders. The top and left describe what is stretchable, the bottom and right define content area (which must be contiguous).

    Check the checkbox to show content area and play with it to see what I’m talking about.
