Hi Zoltan,
Every object in the print composer can be positioned/scaled with exact
numbers - have a look at the "Position and Size" group of every items
properties. This has been around since ages (at least since version 1.7).
Alternatively/in addition you can also use snappable grids and
guidelines.
Hope this helps?
Exactly what I want - This is only the second time I'm needing to use
the composer, and the first time I only needed a dump print, so didn't
bother to fiddle with the options.
This time, when I added the map to the composer and saw it was wonky, I
deleted it and started looking for plugins before noticing the "Item
Properties" tab.
Big thanks,
Zoltan

Hi,
Is there a way to set exact print composer sizes and map positions?
I have set a composer canvas size of 460mm by 275mm, and an area of
interest (made up of one cropped raster and 12 cropped vector maps)
that is exactly that size, at 1:500 scale.
Adding this to print composer canvas using a mouse is not exactly
accurate. I've searched plugins, but noticed nothing useful.
Does print composer by any chance create a text file that I can hack
to achieve this?
Regards,
Zoltan
