I'm trying to select the output extent "select by layer" but the following error shows up:

Fehler bei der Ausführung von Python-Code:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/user/.qgis//python/plugins\sextante\gui\ExtentSelectionPanel.py", line 47, in useLayerExtent extentsDict[str(layer.name())] = layer.extent() UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe4' in position 6: ordinal not in range(128)

Who has an idea?
