Hello, If you are referring to Button.getBackground() than it returns Drawable http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/Drawable.html , which is the base class for * BitmapDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/BitmapDrawable.html> *, ClipDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/ClipDrawable.html> , ColorDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/ColorDrawable.html> , DrawableContainer<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/DrawableContainer.html> , GradientDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/GradientDrawable.html> , InsetDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/InsetDrawable.html> , LayerDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/LayerDrawable.html> , *NinePatchDrawable*<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/NinePatchDrawable.html> , PictureDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/PictureDrawable.html> ,RotateDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/RotateDrawable.html> , ScaleDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/ScaleDrawable.html> , ShapeDrawable<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/ShapeDrawable.html> . So I guess you can test with instanceof.
The second thing I read in your post and confused me is "AndroidOS specific nine-patch drawable?". Android doesn't convert a png to a 9.png. Whatever resource you provide (.png or .9.png) that is what Android uses.
