Description

In map composer, when adding or removing layers from the legend, the legend resizes itself but doesn't do so relative to the reference point that is selected under the Position and Size section of the item properties. For example, if a reference point of bottom-right is selected one would expect the legend to resize itself but to keep the bottom-right corner in the same place.
An Example: The two images show a map legend situated at the bottom-right corner of a map and the Position and Size reference point settings. The first image shows the legend with 6 items, the second image shows the legend with two items removed. In this case the bottom border of the legend has moved upwards whereas one would expect it to stay locked in position.

ignored when scalebars or legends resized themselves.
