Hey guys: Just an update to this problem. If you put the legend inside a VBox or HBox, and set a fixed width/height, scrollbars can be added. This assumes the scrollpolicy is set to either 'auto' or 'on'. I tried this out and it worked. The only drawback is you can't use percentages for width and height.
