Is it possible to lock the scale in the QGIS 2.0.1 print composer? Every time I resize the map, the scale is adjusted. This makes trying out different map layouts really annoying.
Answer
This function was not added to QGIS until version 2.2, so it's a surprisingly recent development. In the most recent version the print composer behaves a little bit more like what we're used to with graphics editors - simply hold shift while you resize your map frame.
If it's a great inconvenience you can upgrade, otherwise you'll have to deal with this frustration. Here is a blog post that provides an overview of print composer improvements in 2.2, as well as a list of additions slated for future releases.
