Output visual diagram of picture

Question

Write a program that inputs the dimensions of a painting, the matting width, and the frame width for a framed portrait. The program should output a diagram using the symbol X for the painting, + for the matting, and # for the framing. The symbols must be space-separated. Trailing whitespace is alright, as long as the output visually matches the criteria. The inputs can be 0.

INPUT: 3 2 1 2 (Width, Height, Matte Width, Frame Width)

OUTPUT:

In text form:

# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # + + + + + # #
# # + X X X + # #
# # + X X X + # #
# # + + + + + # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #

The winning code completes the conditions in the least possible bytes.

Python 2, 98 bytes

w,h,a,b=input()
a*='+'
b*='#'
for c in b+a+h*'X'+a+b:print' '.join(min(c,d)for d in b+a+w*'X'+a+b)

Prints a space-separated grid, strictly following the spec. I'm amused that *= is used to convert a and b from numbers to strings.

Python 3 can save some bytes by avoiding ' '.join, maybe more by using f-strings and assignment expressions. Thanks to Jo King for -2 bytes.

≔×ＮXθ≔×ＮXη

Input the width and height and convert them into strings of Xs.

ＦＥ+#×Ｎι

Loop over the characters + and #, converting them into strings of length given by the remaining two inputs. Then loop over those two strings.

«≔⁺ι⁺θιθ≔⁺ι⁺ηιη»

Prefix and suffix the painting with the strings for the matting and framing.

Ｅη⪫⭆θ⌊⟦ιλ⟧ 

Loop over the strings, taking the minimum of the horizontal and vertical characters, and then double-spacing the rows, implicitly printing each row on its own line.

Takes the input in the order height, width, matte, frame. If the input order specified in the challenge is strict (still waiting on OP for verification), a leading s (swap) can be added for +1 byte.

Required the --no-lazy Elixir compiler flag in the new version of 05AB1E, since Elixir has some odd behavior due to lazy evaluation for nested maps/loops (here the result without this flag).

First attempt at golfing, will be improved soon. a is width, b is height, c is matte width, and d is frame width.

-1 bytes using the := operator to define h as e * d

-2 bytes thanks to Jo King suggesting me to remove the e and f parameters

EXPLANATION:

lambda a,b,c,d:          Define a lambda which takes in arguments a, b, c, and d (The width of the painting, the height of the painting, the padding of the matte, and the padding of the frame width, respectively).
    "\n".join(                       Turn the list into a string, where each element is separated by newlines
        (g:=                         Define g as (while still evaling the lists)...
            ['#'*(a+2*c+2*d)]*d+       Form the top rows (the ones filled with hashtags)

Takes the input in the order frame, matte, width, height; comma separated. Outputs the ASCII-art picture with frame and matte. If the input order is strict I’d need to add more bytes (as per my original post).

Couple of golfs based on @EriktheOutgolfer’s answer; I’d realised the characters were in ASCII order but hadn’t thought how best to take advantage of that, and had forgotten about G. His is still a better answer though!

Try it online!

Ah, this was convoluted.

The input order is Matte,Frame,Width,Height.

-4 bytes after simplifying function 2 & 3.

Explanation

Function ₁: framing function
‼‼(m↔Tm+R parameters a(char),n(int),m(matrix)
      m+R add a side
     T    Transpose
   m↔     reverse each row
‼‼(       repeat that 3 more times

Function ₀: main
mm;₁'#⁰₁'+²RR'X 
           RR'X make width × height matrix of 'X'es
       ₁'+²     add the matte of '+'es
   ₁'#⁰         add the frame of '#'es
mm;             nest each character(adds spaces)

Try it online!

Roughly golfed anonymous codeblock utilising Perl 6's multi-dimensional list assignment. For example, @a[1;2] = 'X'; will assign 'X' to the element with index 2 from the list with index 1, and @a[1,2,3;3,4,5]='X'xx 9; will replace all the elements with indexes 3,4,5 of the lists with indexes 1,2,3 with 'X'.

Explanation:

First, we initialise the list as a a+2*(c+d) by b+2*(c+d) rectangle of #s.

$_=['#'xx$!*2+a]xx($!=c+d)*2+a;
State:
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #

Then we assign the inner rectangle of +s

.[d..^*-d;d..^a+$!+c]='+'xx*;
State:
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # + + + + + # #
# # + + + + + # #
# # + + + + + # #
# # + + + + + # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #

Finally, the innermost rectangle of Xs.

.[$!..^*-$!;$!..^a+$!]='X'xx*;
# # # # # # # # #
# # # # # # # # #
# # + + + + + # #
