Some sections of the editors use 9-slice techniques to create variable boxes. The filter box in the event editor, for example, slices the image from "EE_Filter" filter. In 9-slicing, the original image is divided up into 9 pieces:

• 4 corner pieces
  

• 2 horizontal pieces
  

• 2 vertical pieces
  

• 1 middle piece
  

The corner pieces are placed at the four corners of the box. Then the horizontal and vertical pieces then scale (or repeat depending on the specific 9-slice technique) to fill the space between these corner pieces. Finally the middle piece scales (or repeats) to fill the space between the horizontal and vertical pieces.

Each Clickteam Fusion skin should have 61 files in its folder

• 60 PNG files
• 1 "Info.ini"
  

Any missing file makes the skin disappear within Clickteam Fusion, so make sure every file exists.
