Maybe I'm missing something here but seems that the Map Settings variables of map items in the print composer are not being updated when the map item changes.



It appears to be just a display problem. Using one of the Map Settings variables in an expression works as expected.



To recreate the problem:

- Open the project in attachment, open "composition 1" in the Print Composer;

- Select the Map Item and check item properties panel;

- Confirm that the map item scale and the Map Settings' map_scale variable match;

- Change the map item scale

- And see that none of the Map settings variables are updated.



This affects QGIS 2.18 and QGIS 2.99 (not sure about previous versions)
