Marco and Borys,
thanks.

@Borys: Either I don't understand how to do it or what I am asking for
is still not possible (as Marco said).

I want to have a small overview map of the study area (e.g. the
coastline vector map) and in the big map the land cover map (CORINE
let's say).

I select one map frame in the composer and then activate some layer in
the legend. Then I select the other map frame (in the composer) and I
activate some other map in the legend. Both maps (map frames) in the
princomposer are updated and show the same map.

I will try later on it...

Cheers, Nikos
