Hi people,

I found something strange with the 9-slice scaling option.  
My MC with that option is simply smaller than the one without it !  
You can see an example [here](http://baboumm.free.fr/etc/hidden/9slice.html) (fla in attachement).  
with the simple code on the green button :

```auto
on (release) {
	_root.i += 10;
	this.scroller._height = _root.i; // the left one with 9ss
	this.bar._height = _root.i; // the right one without 9ss
}

```

Does someone have any explanation ?

thanks
