[Qgis-developer] QGIS Web Client: is the layer maximumScale supposed to work?

 yeah - I saw that as well. The client uses OpenLayers to calculate the 
 scale. The QGIS Webclient tries to detect the dpi (there is a 
 dip-detection at the beginning of the intialization - I hope it works) 
 and forwards the dpi parameter to QGIS server. I don't know the 
 internals of OpenLayers and QGIS how they calculate their scales. I 
 checked the print outs from QGIS server - they seem to be on scale on 
 the printed paper. On screen it is always hard to verify ...

 You can open a bug report, but I can't promise that I can provide a 
 solution. Of course you are also welcome to investigate!
