How to link the extent and rotation of each map window to the sheet-sections? I asume the atlas function does not apply in this scenario?

i might add, that two mapwindows are displayed on one sheet in the layout.– MarekJan 24 at 16:47

1Sorry, not clear what you want to do. Can you provide a bit more information?– BabelJan 24 at 16:55

I have a sheet-section-layer 'Blattschnitt', with a certain extension and rotation for each polygone, that has his own attributes, like the name 'Blatt_1' and 'Blatt__2" and even calculated rotation. Now, in the layout, i would like the seperate mapwindows (the upper and the lower one) to be controlled by the geometries of the single polygones (Blatt 1 and Blatt 2) from the layer 'Blattschnitte' hope my translation was clearer now and thank you for the help!– MarekJan 24 at 20:18

If you want item Map2 to follow the extent/rotation of item Map1
Set the Map2 properties to custom variables like:
Rotation: map_get( item_variables('Map 1'),'map_rotation')
X_min: x_min(map_get( item_variables('Map 1'),'map_extent'))
Y_min: y_min(map_get( item_variables('Map 1'),'map_extent'))
X_max: x_max(map_get( item_variables('Map 1'),'map_extent'))
Y_max: y_max(map_get( item_variables('Map 1'),'map_extent'))
Changes to Map1 will automatically be reflected on Map2
You can use a similar approach with updated formulas to compute a specific frame for Map2 based on Map1

Hello Kasper, thank you for the great explenation. I am not sure if it is what i wanted... I have a layer 'Blattschnitte' with two polygons defining the extent and rotation of the area of interrest... but devided into two sections. I would like the upper mapwindow to be controled by 'Blatt 1' of the 'Blattschnitte'-Layer and the lower one by 'Blatt 2'.– MarekJan 24 at 20:23

Ok, will look at it tomorrow, but it should be easy if you want to dig into it to retrieve the geometry from Blatt1 & 2 and use these polygons as references in the Map1 & 2 extents– KasperJan 24 at 21:05

Not as straightforward than I thought. Will keep pushing but not sure to find out. You might want to clarify the question & title to possibly get other answers– KasperJan 25 at 18:03
