[Qgis-user] map frame questions

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi Luca, 

You can export a template file - but if you have linked files (such as
images, logos, etc.) in your layout you will have to send those files
along. In the print composer window -> Composer menu -> Save as
Template. 

You might want to read the user manual if you are not so familiar with
the concept of the print composer. Always a good idea to read the
documentation ;-) 

Greetings, 

Andreas

The icon for the basic shapes is next to the icon you use to add scalebars. You can lock the rectangle element after creation so it doesn't interfere with the selection of other elements.
