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.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:DE'>Best regards, Uwe</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-language:DE'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></blockquote><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-language:DE'>Uwe,<br><br>When you select a Data_defined_override in Position and size, pick edit from the list instead of variable.
