Hi Pedro,
For scale you can place a scalebar and then select style "Numeric". The
only issue I see is that you can't select a text-alignment. Currently,
it is always left aligned. A future version should also support center
and right aligned scalebars/scale values.
I know - it is a bit confusing that you have to select a scalebar for a
numeric scale values - that's why we should probably also do a tip on
that.
Tim - here is another tip:
-----------------
Title: Numeric scale value in map layout linked to map frame
Content: If you want to place a text label as a placeholder for the
current scale, linked to a map frame, you need to place a scalebar and
set the style to 'Numeric'. You need to select the map frame, if there
is more than one.

Hello Andreas,
This tip is great!
Is there any hint of its kind for the scale?
Thanks!

Hi Tim
Where should people who are not developers send the tips to? To you?
Here is one contribution:
--------------
Title: Add the current date to a map layout
Content: You can add a current date variable to your map layout.
Create a regular text label and add the string
$CURRENT_DATE(yyyy-MM-dd) to the text box. See the
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qdate.html#toString
[1]">QDate::toString format documentation for the possible date
formats.
