[ka-Map-users] Adding International character support for layer

[Suvi Mikkola]

Thanks Jamie:)

I have also a problem with class name, but a different one. I have
some very long names, and I would like to display them in two or more
rows in legend.. now they're only in one row and the user must scroll
to see the whole name. In my opinion, scrolling==frustrating. Any idea
how this should be done?

BR,
Suvi
