Description

Setting the scale9Grid on a SWFLoader does not work. However, if you dig through the depth of the loader and access the Shape you can get it working. The code to access the Shape is:

var shape : Shape = Shape(DisplayObjectContainer(Loader(DisplayObjectContainer($swfLoaderVar.content).getChildAt(0)).getChildAt(0)).getChildAt(0));

shape.scale9Grid = $rectangle;

Please modify the native scale9Grid function of the SWFLoader so that it makes use of the real shape and not the SWFLoader container.
