Brief Description
-----------------

Scalable texture-based frame that tiles the texture's centers and sides, but keeps the corners' original size. Perfect for panels and dialog boxes.

Description
-----------

Also known as 9-slice panels, NinePatchRect produces clean panels of any size, based on a small texture. To do so, it splits the texture in a 3×3 grid. When you scale the node, it tiles the texture's sides horizontally or vertically, the center on both axes but it doesn't scale or tile the corners.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_NinePatchRect_property_axis_stretch_horizontal:

- :ref:`AxisStretchMode<enum_NinePatchRect_AxisStretchMode>` **axis_stretch_horizontal**

+-----------+--------------------------------+

+-----------+--------------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_h_axis_stretch_mode()      |
+-----------+--------------------------------+

- :ref:`AxisStretchMode<enum_NinePatchRect_AxisStretchMode>` **axis_stretch_vertical**

+-----------+--------------------------------+
| *Default* | 0                              |
+-----------+--------------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_v_axis_stretch_mode(value) |
+-----------+--------------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_v_axis_stretch_mode()      |
+-----------+--------------------------------+

Doesn't do anything at the time of writing.

.. _class_NinePatchRect_property_draw_center:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **draw_center**

+-----------+--------------------------+
| *Default* | true                     |
+-----------+--------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_draw_center(value)   |
+-----------+--------------------------+
| *Getter*  | is_draw_center_enabled() |
+-----------+--------------------------+

If ``true``, draw the panel's center. Else, only draw the 9-slice's borders.

.. _class_NinePatchRect_property_patch_margin_bottom:

+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_patch_margin()      |
+-----------+-------------------------+

The height of the 9-slice's bottom row. A margin of 16 means the 9-slice's bottom corners and side will have a height of 16 pixels. You can set all 4 margin values individually to create panels with non-uniform borders.

.. _class_NinePatchRect_property_patch_margin_left:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **patch_margin_left**

+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_patch_margin()      |
+-----------+-------------------------+

The height of the 9-slice's left column.

.. _class_NinePatchRect_property_patch_margin_right:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **patch_margin_right**

+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Default* | 0                       |
+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_patch_margin(value) |
+-----------+-------------------------+

+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_patch_margin(value) |
+-----------+-------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_patch_margin()      |
+-----------+-------------------------+

The height of the 9-slice's top row.

| *Default* | Rect2( 0, 0, 0, 0 )    |
+-----------+------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_region_rect(value) |
+-----------+------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_region_rect()      |
+-----------+------------------------+

Rectangular region of the texture to sample from. If you're working with an atlas, use this property to define the area the 9-slice should use. All other properties are relative to this one.

.. _class_NinePatchRect_property_texture:

+----------+--------------------+
| *Setter* | set_texture(value) |
