[Qgis-user] map composer: cannot set portrait

[Tim Michelsen]

Hello,
using map composer with Ubuntu 13.04. & QGIS 2.1 (latest).

I change my page to A3-portrait.

But after that, I cannot see any change in the map composer window.

I would like to compose a map with a more upright dimension. Think of a
shape similar to France or Germany.

What needs to be changed?

Would anyone share a template for me to try out?

Thanks and regards,
Timmie
