Description

Displays the Image as a 9-sliced graphic.

A 9-sliced image displays a central area stretched across the image surrounded by a border comprising of 4 corners and 4 stretched edges.

This has the effect of creating a resizable skinned rectangular element suitable for dialog boxes, windows, and general UI elements.



Note: For this method to work properly the Sprite assigned to Image.sprite needs to have Sprite.border defined.

The slices can also be set up in the Sprite Editor.
