Rectangle options, round corners + scaleX problem

[ArenaFlash]

How to keep the same rounded corner even when I want to shrink it's width?

(working on cs5, which is same exact rectangle tool as cs4)

The only way I know of is to make it two shapes, a box in the middle, and two flipped caps on the ends.

Or better yet, make the rectangle with code and redraw it as needed with code.

Heh, yeah... that's a better idea by far. Basically the first idea but actually built in. Never messed with that before, slick.

its good, you can even enable it on your library items without even coding anything. Right click a symbol - properties - Enable guides for 9-slice scaling.
