Padding not allowed around canvas

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add some CSS padding to the div containing the canvas
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected to see padding around the canvas. Unfortunately, since it is 
absolutely positioned this didn't work.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r171, Windows Firefox 3.6

Please provide any additional information below.
I commented out this line:
c.style.cssText = 'position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px;';

This allowed padding to have its effect. It also appears to not break anything.
Attached patch with this change.

I missed a part of the patch.
I also had to change how the canvas size was computed.

This may not be the most elegant solution.

I recommend putting a container around the canvas and giving that the required 
padding. You can use position: relative on it so that the canvas is positioned 
inside it.

If this is undesirable for some reason, please explain why and I can reopen the 
ticket for you.
