[Qgis-community-team] Looking for help to update the englisch manual (Otto Dassau)

[Otto Dassau]

Hi Hien,

if you have a look at the manual task list:
http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/17/ManualTasks#Updates-QGIS-20-User-Guide

There are several features listed for chapter "print composer" at the
bottom now. I added your name to the lines and extended the list to what I
think needs to be added/updated for the print composer.

* snap to left/mid/right coordinates of other items when moving composer
  items for alignment
* custom linestyle for composer grid
* add support to SVG images from url
* new element "add html frame"  
* Support for creation of map atlasses (new tab)
* possibility to show composer map grid coordinates in degree/minute/seconds 
* Multipage compositions
* split legend in several columns
* Display rectangle of another composer map (overview map) 
* Zebra style for composer grid (black/white pattern at borders) 
* New Rendering menu with several blending modes (here Larissa has more
  information)
* General new structure of the item property tab for all elements 	
* describe item ID feature in element tab (was already in 1.8)

I would suggest you start using the master branch and send pull requests for
your changes, so we can have a look. Is that ok for you?

Thank you very much for your help and don't hesitate to ask, if there are
questions.

Regards
Otto
