This command draws a rectangle to enclose the selected text.
This rectangle is drawn as a polyline in the current layer.

with the Draw>Text>Text Box - i am getting a square with a single line around the left and top and a really heavy accented line on the bottom and right- what i would like is just a nice sausage.

and with this one (Draw>Text>Draw Box Around Text)
the error is

Select text: bad argument type: number: nil :error#36
