[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

I run into this issue so I tried to fix it to go into the emacs core code.
I followed the suggestion made in the bug and set box attribute to be
in the form (width . height). I tested it on windows and gnu/linux system
and on a mac os virtual machine but I am not sure to have tested all the
possible drawing as there are plenty of them. I tested both text box
and image relief.
I would appreciate that other people (especially those who use CAIRO
and those under real os x machine) confirm that the result is correct.

My simple test script :
----
(defun test_box_around_text (s)
  (save-excursion
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (insert "ABCDE\nABCDE\nABCDE\n")
    (put-text-property 8 11 'font-lock-face `(:box (:line-width ,s :color
"red")))
    ;; (put-text-property 8 11 'font-lock-face `(:box (:line-width ,s
:color "white" :style released-button)))
    ))

(test_box_around_text 4)
(test_box_around_text -4)
(test_box_around_text '(4 . -4))
(test_box_around_text '(-4 . 4))
(test_box_around_text '(-4 . -4))
(test_box_around_text '(4 . 0))
(test_box_around_text '(0 . 4))
(test_box_around_text '(4 . 1))
(test_box_around_text '(1 . 4))
(test_box_around_text '(-4 . 1))
(test_box_around_text '(1 . -4))

(save-excursion
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (insert-image
     (create-image
      "splash.svg" nil nil :relief 12)))
----

Thanks in advance,
Alexandre
