Description
In the print composer a preset page size is set (e.g. A0). Item sizes/positions are defined using expression evaluation like "@layout_pagewidth -10". When changing the preset page size, it is expected that the item variable follows the change. However, the expression seems to be evaluated with the old layout presets. A work around is saving the project with the new page sizes and after reload the expression has been correctly evaluated.
