Nyall, it definitely looks like that, but I wasn't able to open the project when I tried (I think I forgot the symbols or something). I'm on a vacation at the moment, but I'll try and have a look asap.

Holger, what happens if you use mm instead of map units, does it look better, does the zoom level change anything ?

#7 Updated by Holger Naumann about 9 years ago

Hi Vincent,
if units are in mm, it is ok. But if one symbol is in mapunits, legend is broken.

#8 Updated by Vincent Mora about 9 years ago

Hi Holger,
Thanks for the update. The thing that seems to be broken seems to be the cropping of the symbol, the symbol size is right but the symbol takes way to much place. I'll have a look asap.

#9 Updated by Vincent Mora about 9 years ago

Nyall, I have a lead: when QgsSymbolV2LegendNode::minimumIconSize is called by QgsDefaultVectorLayerLegend::createLayerTreeModelLegendNodes, the model() is null, whereas it is not when QgsSymbolV2LegendNode::data() is called with decoration rôle.

For what I understand, it's a matter of setting the correct parent for the node in createLayerTreeModelLegendNodes. If you or Matthias could give me a hint, I'd be gratefull.

Vmora - Martin will be the one to contact about this, he's got the most knowledge of how the legends work...

Hi Vincent, the problem is solved in the mapwindow. But in print composer, the problem exist.

#14 Updated by Nyall Dawson about 9 years ago

Please note that the scaling of legend shapes in composer legends is intentional and is the same beahviour as previous versions. So that's not an issue.

However, it seems like the size of the legend isn't calculated correctly on composer load when the legend contains shape sizes in map units - the legend is set to a massive width & height. Forcing a refresh of the legend fixes the size.

Actually - that's a unrelated issue. Closing this.
