[Qgis-user] Print Composer - map frame centered to layer/object/map center

[Miroslav Umlauf]

I can't figure out how can I center the map in Print Composer in the same
way as in map window in QGIS. Let's say I have layer which I want have in
the center of the map. In map window it is pretty easy - I just click on
"Zoom to layer extent".

Unfortunately when I create map frame in Map composer, the layer is
centered on width (good) but not centered on height (I guess it is aligned
to bottom).

If I use button "Set to map canvas extent" in Print Composer / Item
Properties / Extents it is again centered on width but this time aligned to
top.

I think in both cases it would be much better to have it centered. Is there
any way to have map centered in Print Composer to the same center as map in
map window?

(btw is there any tool to search in archive of this "Qgis-user" mailing
list?)

Thank you for any clues, cheers
