I am having an issue when exporting atlas map series to image. In each map the position of the legend is jumping around by a few cm. I have the position referenced under item properties to the bottom right corner which I thought would mean the legend expands and contracts upward and left as the legend contents change between maps. Instead the whole legend seems to move around sometimes covering up other information.
Is this a known bug?
I observe the same issue happening when the checkbox "Main properties > Resize to fit contents" is checked.
Also I can observe that the Y position on page n is what should have been set as Y position calculated for page n-1.
For example is the legend was tall on page 2, and short on page 3 then it is floating high on page 3 instead of being anchored at the bottom of the page where I want it.
The solution above won't fix the issue, in my case. The only way that I found is unchecking "Resize to fit contents"
Page 1, tall legend:
Page 2, short legend:
Page 3, tall legend:
I'm using QGIS 2.18.24 on OS X El Capitan.
Any hep would be greatly appreciated!
You can fix the position by copying the X and Y values without the mm under the tab Position and size and paste them by clicking on Data Defined Override and go to paste as you can see below or go to Edit and paste the number only there:
After pasting the number, it should be marked in yellow color
Do this process for both X and Y which will fix the position of the legend.
mm for X and Y and paste each one for its corresponding field.
