Create 9-Scale Sprites

• – initWithFile:rect:capInsets:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with a texture file, a delimitation zone and with the specified cap insets. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithFile:rect:capInsets:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with a texture file, a delimitation zone and with the specified cap insets.

• – initWithFile:rect:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with a texture file and a delimitation zone. The texture will be broken down into a 3×3 grid of equal blocks. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithFile:rect:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with a texture file and a delimitation zone. The texture will be broken down into a 3×3 grid of equal blocks.

• – initWithFile:capInsets:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with a texture file and with the specified cap insets. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithFile:capInsets:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with a texture file. The whole texture will be broken down into a 3×3 grid of equal blocks.

• – initWithFile:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with a texture file. The whole texture will be broken down into a 3×3 grid of equal blocks. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithFile:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with a texture file. The whole texture will be broken down into a 3×3 grid of equal blocks.

• – initWithSpriteFrame:capInsets:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame and with the specified cap insets. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithSpriteFrame:capInsets:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame and the centre of its zone. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• – initWithSpriteFrame:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithSpriteFrame:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• – initWithSpriteFrameName:capInsets:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame name and with the specified cap insets. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithSpriteFrameName:capInsets:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame name and the centre of its zone. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• – initWithSpriteFrameName:

  Initializes a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame name. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

• + spriteWithSpriteFrameName:

  Creates a 9-slice sprite with an sprite frame name. Once the sprite is created, you can then call its “setContentSize:” method to resize the sprite will all it’s 9-slice goodness intract. It respects the anchorPoint too.

Modifying the 3x3 Grid

• – resizableSpriteWithCapInsets:

  Creates and returns a new sprite object with the specified cap insets. You use this method to add cap insets to a sprite or to change the existing cap insets of a sprite. In both cases, you get back a new image and the original sprite remains untouched.

Changing the Appearance

• – setSpriteFrame:

  Sets the sprite frame used to display the 9-slice sprite.
