[Qgis-user] map composer: cannot set portrait

[Alexandre Neto]

Hello Tim,

If you are new to Map composing with QGIS, I advice you to take a look into
the Print Composer
Chapter<http://www.qgis.org/en/docs/user_manual/print_composer/print_composer.html>of
the User
Manual <http://www.qgis.org/en/docs/user_manual/index.html>. That said, You
need to change your Map item scale in the main properties or it's extent.

Best regards,

Alexandre Neto
