The print composer has me kind of stumped...<br><br>What I'd like is a simple scale bar to indicate how long a mile (or perhaps 2,5, or 10 miles) is on my map. The project units are in feet (but I'm not sure that's relevant in the composer?).<br>
<br>When I try entering the exact input that's used in the screenshot in the manual (page 96) thinking that might get me somewhere at least, the bar ends up going kind of crazy (becomes off-the-map really long, and unselectable, but I'm able to resize it so that it's at least not on the canvas).<br>
<br>Can someone suggest which numbers to enter to accomplish this? And/or perhaps explain what the fields in that dialog mean?<br><br>I'm using 1.0, from the OSGeo distribution for WIndows.<br>
