title: Draw 9-patch not working - cannot edit image
body: <p>after I found out (sadly) that there is no easy way to create a simple border around a View, I was forced to use the 9-patch-image approach to get a border around my View.</p>
  
  <p>So I read the short thing there is on the 9-patch and its easy enough to understand. I started the "Draw 9-patch" application that came with the Android SDK, opened up a very simple image I created in Paint and then... I got stuck.</p>
  
  <p>According to the page (<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/draw9patch.html" rel="noreferrer">http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/draw9patch.html</a>) I should be able to define those areas where the image can be expanded and so on, just by clicking on the edges ("Click within the 1-pixel perimeter to draw the lines that define the stretchable patches...").</p>
  
  <p>So I try to do just that and absolutely nothing happens. I try to hold down SHIFT when clicking and also do the rigth-mouse-click, and nothing happens. When I move the mouse away from the 1-pixel perimiter I get a grey-and-red "marquee" (stripes).</p>
  
  <p>Bottom line is: nothing happens no matter what I do.</p>
