Leggy Pansies

I have some Pansies that have self seeded over the past few years and although they are still very pretty they seem quite 'leggy'. Can I cut them down a bit or do I have to wait until they have finished flowering? Also, when would be a good time to divide them? Many Thanks

I usually cut mine back to about five inches tall when they get particularly leggy. They'll soon send out new growth and then flowers. Maybe give them a bit of a feed after pruning? Not sure the best time to divide them.. I just generally do it when ever suits me.
Thanks Blue Onion, they are currently in flower, so wasn't sure whether to do it now.
