Hi Martin,

Thanks for your patch. I will try my best to apply it to OSX, i'm new to elisp so it may take a little bit longer. I'm also interested in fixing it in other platform if no one is working on that part.

Thanks for all your help, it's a great community.

Best,
Deyuan

What you mean is Emacs is unable to _resize_ a window in pixel
increments.  It can only change window size in integral increments of
the frame's default face.  That is correct (and AFAIU is the subject
or Martin's patch).

But once a window is created or resized, it can display partial
lines.  Just remap the default face and you will see it.
