[Qgis-user] Legend block behaviour in composer

[Richard McDonnell]

As a follow up, might I suggest another option, create the legend Block 
items as you wish
Export the legend blocks as an image and insert .
This will of course mean that if you restyle the layer you will have to 
redo the image, but its another option to try.
Regards,

Richard.
