[Qgis-user] Variables in print composer

[Uwe Fischer]

Hello List,

 

what is the use of variables in print composer? A map frame has variables
assigned like map_extent_height and _width. But how to make use of those
variables? If I try to place a rectangle around the map frame using the
determined extent variables (plus something), I cannot use the variables.
There is a ,data defined override' section in the Position and size dialog
for rectangles, but when I select ,variable' it tells me that there are no
variables, which seems to be nonsense.

 

 

Best regards, Uwe
