UI retains layout when RTE maximized for editing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
After using the 'Maximize' button in a Rich text editor in a section, the screen layout was incorrect after visiting another window and toggling back to the one with the RTE. This was a timing conflict: when the RTE is maximized CSS styles are captured and removed from the Harness, and whenever refresh section fires onChange, RTE is destroyed and recreated. To make sure the UI does not get distorted, pzpega_ui_richtexteditor.js has been modified to resize the RTE before destroy and to set the CSS styles back to the harness.

'Close' button hidden when browser doesn't support it
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
Attempting to access an external NPS survey assignment a second time generates an Access Denied / Logon Denied window; the resulting window was not closeable by using the 'close' button in Google Chrome and Firefox. This was traced to browser security restrictions imposed by Firefox and Google Chrome that disable Window.close()for URLs launched directly by hitting the URL. To avoid confusion, the DenyExternal HTML rule has been modified to avoid showing the 'close' button for browsers that do not support it in this case.

Automations work using property with JSON string
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
When using JSON to send complex data structures to an automation via a property, a special character ( ' ) used in the JSON string caused an error when trying to execute the automation from a flow action: "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input". Analysis showed that if any relevant record had a single quote, the generated HTML of java tried to break the html data-automation-propData attribute, resulting in an exception. To fix this, the code has been updated to replace the single quote with ASCII HTML entity which will make the data-automation-propData attribute friendly.

Activity pzCreatePage correctly uses parameter dataTransform
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
When trying to use the out-of-the-box activity pzCreatePage to create a new page using Run Activity action on click of a button, the page was getting created but the data transform (pyDefault) that was passed as a parameter was not getting applied. This is because the Page-New step in that activity does not use the parameter dataTransform: due to development error, an extra parameter was added that wasn't supported. This extraneous parameter has bene removed, and the page-new method in pzCreatePage is now using the dataTransform parameter.

Improved performance and error handling for assembled 'when' rules
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
This release features a major re-working of the assembled 'when' rules to improve performance. The vast majority of rule dispatch costs come from unnecessary work. By optimizing VTable dispatch, eliminating unnecessary validation, increasing intrinsic usage, and optimizing dispatch routines, rule dispatch has been made 5-100x faster for IL-Assembled rules. In addition there is improved error handling for exceptions.

Smartinfo fires correctly when URL encryption is enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
If Smartinfo was enabled, running a report definition worked as expected. If URL encryption was enabled, Smartinfo did not display. This has been corrected with an added check in pega_ui_smartinfo.js.

Reports list properly updated when switching applications
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
When switching applications, some of the report browser was displaying information from the first application. This was due to incomplete clearing of the data, and has been fixed by calling pzRBSetFilters in Data-Report-Browser!pzRBForceDataPageRefresh to reset the report browser when it is opened.

Enhanced whitelist/blacklist use for Alert logging
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
An enhancement has been added to allow Alert logging to all sources (remote and local) to utilize a whitelist instead of a blacklist for parameter page inserts by default. This ensures appropriate sensitive information security regardless of destination.Alert parameter page data is white listed with allowed keywords by default for local and remote alerts. Previously, it was possible to set remote alerts to use whitelist or blacklist obfuscation. The code checked the black list for the local alerts (file) and then decided if it needed to do the whitelist as well. The new method checks if it needs to do whitelist (default) or blacklist and then does the obfuscation only once.
