Description

When trying to setup a scale bar for feet I am getting inconsistent results when changing the units from Feet to Map Units. The map units on my canvas is feet so there should be no change when switching between the two units (Feet or Map Units). When it is set to "Feet" the bar scale is wrong but if the units are set to "Map Units" then the bar scale is correct but the units read "units" and not "feet". Review the PDFs attached and you should see the issue with the scale bar. Test data, PDF maps and Qgs file is attached.
