Dear William, Thanks for the fix. Is this available now in your website?
As I need to quickly produce some layout, I had to edit by hand the qpt files in a text editor (ugh!). While this works in many of my fontsize changes, when I tried reloading the qpt through the map composer, my custom labels in the legend box (group text and item text ) was not recognized. Instead, it reverts back to the default legend layout. The changes that were not included are not the font size but the text labels I modified within the Map composer. I normally, move the layer label into the item label. Anyway, happy to point out that you can edit layout settings via text editor. :) On Tue, Mar 15, 2011 at 2:17 AM, William Kyngesburye <[email protected]> wrote: > This is fixed in SVN.
