I had that feeling also that it will only be interpreted as stretchable pixels if inside the res folder...coz what happened is that the pixels that were marked as stretchable as what we can see colored black in the side was shown when i display the downloaded image...hmm..strange. This one should be included in the docs that only in the res folder if it is...
anyone?

Is it possible to download 9 patch png files from a webserver then display it as a background of a layout while keeping the information inside the file like the stretchable pixel? I have tried using a 9 patch image coming from the resource drawable directory of my project and it displays correctly...stretching only those pixels marked as stretchable but when I tried to download a 9 patch image from my web server then the application will use the downloaded 9 patch image the stretchable pixels does not take effect..i mean instead of stretching only those pixels that where marked as stretchable it stretched the whole image... the code im using is this one: URL url = new URL( imgurl ); URLConnection con = url.openConnection(); con.connect(); this.mStream = con.getInputStream(); Drawable image = BitmapDrawable.createFromStream(this.mStream, imgfn); this.mStream.close(); this.mImageLayout.setBackgroundDrawable( image ); Hoping for some help.
