Potential Bug: 9-slice scaling on iPad (1/2) scaling incorrectly

Hey all,

I have a simple rounded rectangle width a stroke. You can do it in the IDE. Specify when you make it a symbol that you want it to be a 9-slice clip. Adjust the guides so they're aligned to the corners as usual. Now change the scale or size (height/width). You would expect the stroke around the 9-slice object to stay the same size (preserving rounded corners, which is the point of 9-slice). On OS5.0 (and 4.0 methinks) the scale of the stroke is growing with the size of the scale.

I'm pretty sure this is a bug. I'm not sure why anyone would want the stroke to also be scaled up or down. I have only tested this on ipad1/2 OS4/5. Can anyone else confirm? Then I'll submit it as a bug.

I guess the solution would be to outline the stroke. Seems like a bug, I too dont see a reason to scale the stroke. I have not tested this myself.

Because realtime non-bitmap rendering is far slower on iPad1 I ended up just bitmapping everything possible. I only draw what's absolutely necessary now. I gave up on 9-slice, there is no way to outline it in any way that's performance friendly on ipad1.

Chalk it up to a bug.
