Can Flame support 9-patch images? I’ve searched but couldn’t find any documentation or examples.

I know it’s possible to implement 9-patch in standalone Flutter:
https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/Image/centerSlice.html

However, I’m unsure how to integrate Flutter’s features seamlessly within a Flame game.

Since Godot supports 9-patch out of the box, I feel it should be possible in Flame as well:
https://2dgames.jp/godot-nine-patch-rect/ (Japanese)

A specific use case would be the outer frame for elements like RPG command input menus or shop menus.

A standalone Flutter 9-patch may not be well-suited for games.
Pixel art is drawn at small sizes. For example, if the line width is 4 pixels, it may appear too thin in Flutter.

In Flame, size adjustments allow even thin lines to be represented as larger pixels.

As already mentioned, I am asking whether there is something specific for Flame, not just for standalone Flutter.

As mentioned in the comments, it seems possible to achieve this using something like NineTileBox, so I plan to give it a try (though I haven’t tested it yet).

btw, i just found that flame supports nine pathches naively: go to pub.dev/documentation/flame/latest/index.html and type nine in the top right search box – so use that and not CustomPainterComponent

i mean that you shoud use the classes that supports nine patches natievly in flame
