Is it possible to use several 9 patch images inside LayerDrawable?

I want to use two nine patches inside LayerDrawable

   <layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
       <item android:id="@+id/solid">
           <nine-patch android:src="@drawable/button_header_solid" android:dither="true" />
       </item>
       <item android:id="@+id/transparent">
           <nine-patch android:src="@drawable/button_header_transparent" android:dither="true" />
       </item>
   </layer-list>

And it seems that only first layer is stretched while second one stays as is.

Both images are of the same size as .png, and have equal stretchable and padding areas.

The question is: Do we allowed to use several 9-patches (in one layer-list) or only one is allowed?

Thanks.

Just now faced with the same problem. Try this:

<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
       <item android:id="@+id/solid">
           <nine-patch android:src="@drawable/button_header_solid" android:dither="true" />
       </item>
       <item android:id="@+id/transparent">
           <clip>
              <nine-patch android:src="@drawable/button_header_transparent" android:dither="true" />
           </clip>
       </item>
   </layer-list>
