Description
When creating layouts for the programmers, please provide the fully cut 4
corners as well as a full image. Sometimes the latter is better for theming.

Mickey-
Can you please show us an example of what you mean here. I'm talking with the designer and can't seem
to explain this very well.
Thanks!

For the records, the usual way pixmaps engines deal with images is that you have
a portion that is stretchable (e.g. the gradient of a button) and a portion that
is not stretchable (e.g. the frame border of a button). The pixmap engine then
renders the frame fixed and only has to scale the innards -- hence even large
buttons can look ok, because only the gradient is scaled.
It will help if the designer doesn't provide 4 seperate images (4 corners with
overlapping middle part), but rather or in addition one reasonably sized (usual
size of the resulting screen element) combined image together with a text file
or metadata that gives us the information about the size of the frame portions
and the innards.
will talk with designer today.
