Excuse me. I'm studying in University and learning how to use QGIS effectively. So I have a question about modifying scale bar, whiich maybe quite stupid ^ ^.
The layers have idential CRS (WGS84), the settings for map tools is in meters.
when i print my map by PDF ( i covert from QGIS 2.18), Scale bar isn't exact although i try to modify it in many ways
what is the best way to modify scale bar and do you have any documents about that problem, please help and share it for me
Thanks all, sorry because my Eng isn't good

you can drag the corner of the legend in the layout to make it precise if you wish...provide your problem is only in the layout and the CRS makes sense for want you are doing...

I have found to get a correct scale bar, make sure the main map window is in a UTM (metre) projection, e.g. WGS84 UTM z20s, not lat/long (as is the WGS84 projection).
