It`s the small additions that make Flash 8 such a great tool.
First i thought scaleGrid9 only works with vectors but it also works with bitmaps.
Here is a small example showing a windows window 😉 in flash. It`s all just one MovieClip.
Drag the clip to scale it. The edges will not distort! Turn of scaleGrid9 and see how it would look without it.
That will be great for component development.
