Updated calling activities from refresh to use invokeActivity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
The Refresh DX API was inconsistently throwing an index out of bound exception when using a checkbox which invokeed an activity on check to save and commit the case. This has been addressed by updating calling activities from refresh to use invokeActivity, and a try/catch has been added to capture exceptions and add a page message if the activity is not found or has an error.

Corrected unexpected page refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When a value was changed in a section where the source of the section was defined as a property, the page refreshed without any announcement and focus was disrupted. Investigation showed this happened when using paragraph control where an anchor tag was used without any Name attribute. An update has been made to explicitly set the gFocusElement property after the processAdditionalFields activity to resolve this issue. Because the Name attribute is needed to query the particular element from the DOM to focus back, there were also intermittent issues when using the Microsoft Edge browser with Windows OS even after adding Name in the paragraph control link. A setTimeout has been added before focusing the element to resolve this.

Ensured correct context for multi-select
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When using multi-select controls, there was an intermittent issue with selecting values using a mouse click. Using the tab key worked as expected. This was traced to the focus being event triggered multiple times so pega.ctx.dom returned undefined values in the second call.This has been resolved by focusing the target element before creation of capsule to ensure the context remains the same.

JAWS reads characters limits in grid text area
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
A text area in a grid with a character limit was not reading the maximum characters and remaining characters when using JAWS. This has been resolved by adding the necessary aria attributes to the non-template text area control.

Accessibility improved for blank field errors in non-auto generated controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When using non-auto generated controls, leaving an edit field blank caused an error message informing that the value cannot be blank. An accessibility issue was seen where this error text was not part of the field label or description, preventing it from being announced by screen readers (NVDA or JAWS) when focus is on the field. This has been corrected by adding aria-describedby in non-template textarea.

Handling added for invalid numeric range
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When filtering the range in number column with value as “1000000” , the validation message appeared as "1000000 : This results in an invalid numeric range". This has been resolved with an update to use Data-value to get the non-formatted value for decimal.

Update Language Pack for correct direct web access link localization
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When a direct web access (DWA) link was generated for an external user to perform an action on an external assignment, the shared link was corrupted when used with localization on the receiving system. This was due to the JSP fragment in the correspondence not being properly translated during localization. To resolve this, please access the most recent Language Pack available from https://community.pega.com/marketplace/language-packs/pega-platform

Check added for readonly header control
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After configuring an optimized grid and adding a checkbox control in the header with editable options, when the control in corresponding column was configured as Auto, the checkbox in the header was rendered as read-only. When the control in the corresponding column was configured as "Read-only always" or displayText control was used, the checkbox was rendered as editable control. This was traced to a missing check for pyEditOptions = "Read-only", and has ben resolved.

Added API for Pega Call Team websocket reconnect
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When a call came in, the operator was not able to pick it up due to the popup only containing a reconnect section. This has been resolved by adding the disconnectAndReconnect API which will be used by Pega Call Team if the websocket reconnect limit exceeds 5.
