<p dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p dir="ltr">You have a lot to gain from moving into a earlier version of QGIS. The GUI changes weren't that drastic, but with much more capability.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I can't remember if it was in the same place in 2.18, but currently you can configure your prefered scales in th global options.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Settings > Options > Map tools > predefined scales.</p>

Hi, </div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I have been working with QGIS 2.18.28 for the past 5 years, just had to buy a new desktop and when I installed QGIS 2.18, the site recommended me to instal QGIS 3.40 which I did, but unfortunately I couldn't understand it, so went back to QGIS 2.18. But on
downloading my info I managed to get the raster project fine, then I opened the New Composer, transferred the map over OK, but when I entered the Composition details that was OK, but then I wanted to change the scale on the "Item Properties" and found a totally
different system?</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I used to be able to put in 50,000 or 25000, now it is a 10 digit number, which makes no sense to me?</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I am totally lost, tried various things but getting nowhere.</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I would like scales of 50000 down to 10000, how do I do it Please?</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
Thanks if anyone can help</div>
