HI, try parameter rotate in your layout for example rotate 10 S pozdravom Ing. Michal Danko On Fri, Apr 27, 2012 at 3:08 PM, Torsten Schnitter < torsten.schnitter@netcologne.de> wrote:
Hi Bruce
Yes, I'm using export map. "page-grin on" and "size x y cm" is just used for debugging.
Attached you'll find my map. As you can see there is plenty of space around the map. May be it's more clear what I mean if you can see it. ;-)
I want the map to be more lower left in the same scale. Is this possible in any way?
Thanks Torsten

Torsten It looks like you are using these a bit different to the way I do it, so I'll ask to be sure; Are you using 'export map' or 'export atlas'?
For export map the cave is positioned in the centre of the page when I do it, and the white space margin is controlled by overlap 0.5 cm (The meaning differs between map and atlas - see The Therion Book). You can modify the cave position somewhat by forcing the page to be a bit larger in one direction using map-header 110 100 nw ie, the title and legend in this example is plotted starting 110% of the original page width to the right.
For export map I think the function of size x y cm page-grid on
is kind of like a debug feature so you can see how the atlas page tessellation will cut up the map (I think). I do this once my cave map exceeds the size of the page I want to use, and then I switch to using atlas.
If you are exporting atlas, then you can control the position of the page tessellation using a layout like...
#Set co-ord system and position of map on the atlas tessellation #------------------------------------- cs EPSG:27200 #NZ Map Grid 1949 origin-label 1 A #label type #origin = co-ords of lower left corner of first atlas page origin 2502060 6023650 380 metres
Or have I misunderstood?
Bruce
