Do I understand it correctly, that you want this upper outline in the shifted map not to be cropped out?
yes.
Unfortunately, this is not a bug, it is a feature :)
i see. however if it is cropped out i do not get immediately the extend of the cave.
By default, previews (above or below) in the maps are cropped out, they are there just for the information, how are passages above or below currently selected map situated.
If you want to display this preview complete, you have two possibilities. You can add extra size to the paper by setting "overlap" in layout - unfortunately, it is not possible to set overlap just for the left page border.
which happens to be my case: the cave is about 2.5 km (so far) and i have all the details already put in ... so i do not want to flip it horizontally.
So you will have to use probably some dirty trick, to fix this problem, e.g. adding some dummy symbol to the map, that will be drawn by white color and that will increase the scrap outline.
i will go for that ... will try with an empty, or blank, label
May be a mode, that will not crop preview outlines is also needed, but it will definitely take some time to implement.
ok. thanks a lot. marco
