UIImageView with stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth doesn't stretch image

Question

I\'m trying to stretch an Image in a UIImageView - but I fail miserably :)

Following setup:

NIB-File with a view and a UIImageView attached to this view.

Answer 1

Got it... (interesting that this happens often just seconds after asking the question)

In IB, I had to set the mode in the UIImageView to «Scale to fill» and set the Autoresize-property

That's what solved the problem...

Hope that helps somebody ;)

Answer 2

Sometimes it depends on the file, However I did two things to fix it and I don't know which was the solution:

• Open and resave the file (I don't think this made the difference)
• Create the file.png and file@2x.png file. (Anyway this should always be done with stretchable images)

After I added the @2x file the image stretched ok.
