I have been working on a project with lots of round cornered cubes. They all have to scale so i apply scale9Grids. Making a new Scale9Grid everytime and not seeing the grid frustrated me enough to come up with a solution to all my problems.
Thus the birth of the Scale9Helper class.
This class can make a Scale9Grid for you and it can also visualize you grid. SO you can actually see how the Scale9Grid is layed out.

Heres an example:
–
Usage:
Scale9Helper.setScaleGrid ( your sprite, offset from sprite border );
Scale9Helper.showScaleGrid( your sprite );
