Comments on 9 Patch Editor for Android

★★★★☆ A Google User · Nov 7, 2014

Resizing 9.png? Please, adding ability to resizing 9.png (xxhdpi>xhdpi>hoping;mdpi) as no everyone has a pc.

How cool of you to build this! Simple, ad free, & works or at least seems to. I haven't had any complaints from the apks I've used the 9.pngs In. Could use instructions or maybe a point in the direction of the relevant 9.png documentation/usages. No need to add any other editing features...IT DOES WHAT IT'S FOR! NO MORE NO LESS. A PERFECT TOOL! SIMPLE & THE ONLY ONE. THANK YOU AGAIN, Without this apk I would be stuck on my projects, since I only develop with/on Android! Let's build Android with Android & not Windows/Ubuntu/OSX. We need more tools like this quality apk!

★★★★★ A Google User · Jun 20, 2014

Quirky, but awesome! I unzipped framework-res.apk. No borders found. Opened it up in here and magically, all the 9-patches were selected automatically! However, using a 3.8" phone, the bars are too hard to select unless zoomed in, and if two patches overlap, they become one. This is okay, but adding a new guide removes all your work, forcing you to group the patches to the extremes of the image.
