     Type:  defect       |      Status:  new                      
 Priority:  normal       |   Milestone:  6.4.1

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Steps to reproduce:
  * Start wx profile tool
  * Profile options -> Profile plot settings
  * Change "Transsect segment marker" legend text to "āšņļ"
  * As there is no OK button (WTF? Designed for Mac users?!?), click "Save"
 to close this window
  * KaBOOM!
