How to stretch backgroundimage in UINavigationBar and UITabBar when autoresized

Question

I've set a background image with rounded corners for my UINavigationBar and UITabBar, however during rotation, the backgrondimage repeats instead of stretches. Is there a way to stretch so the corners stay rounded?

Thanks!

Answer 1

for ios5.0+ use [UIImage imageNamed:nil] resizableImageWithCapInsets] instead.

Answer 2

Found it, it's [UIImage imageNamed:nil] stretchableImage...] etc.
