Description

Steps to reproduce:
Add a scale bar to a composer map (in a project where meters is the unit used)
And set units to map units. You'll surely have a bar with steps of 10 units (which is the value set in Segments section > "Fixed width".
Change the units (nautical miles, feet), the segment size will change but the value set in "Fixed width" doesn't change.

The other side is that if you have changed the width and then change units, the value remains in the box but it's not what is dispaleyd in the map.

I think the value set for the segment width should be applied when changing the units (this seems to work well with the "Fit segment width" option but not with the "Fixed width" one).
