Tab panel read meaningfully by screen readers

Tab will exit portal side menu
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
It is expected that the Tab key will take users out of the portal menu and to the next focusable element, but on the side navigation menu both tab and arrow keys moved to the next menu item. This caused users to have to navigate the entire menu. The correct behavior was seen for the Navigation rule when called from an Action (for example on the button). This was traced to the system using tabindex as "0" for every element in the menu, and the tabs code has been updated to exit out of the menu bar when pressed.

Third party cookies reminder added for Mashup in incognito browsers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
When working in incognito/private browser windows, attempting to use Mashup displayed a message indicating login credentials were not recognized ("Unknown password and/or username"). This was due to recent changes originating with the browsers regarding blocking third-party cookies which are necessary for Mashup to run. For informational purposes, a new API has been added which will check for the PegaRules cookie; if the cookie is not present, the message "Third party cookies must be enabled for Mashup to function." will be displayed. This message may be customized by configuring the setting "pega.web.config.xCookiesDisabled" with the required message.

Layout Group tab alignment correctly shown in Microsoft Internet Explorer
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
Even though the responsive breakpoint for a layout group was disabled, the tabs were getting changed to Menus in Microsoft Internet Explorer. This was traced to Tab-overflow being triggered in very small viewports when using Internet Explorer 11, and has been resolved by adding dom manipulations for all layout groups.

Cache cleared before PDF generation to ensure proper fonts
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
The font File OCRAEXT.ttf added at location "/usr/local/tomcat/fonts" was not being picked when the PDF was generated via an agent execution. When the same activity was run manually, the font issue was sporadic. Investigation showed that when multiple apps use the same props directory but different fonts directories, the handling would sometimes cause one app to use another app's props file with the result of the improper fonts mapping. To resolve this, an update has been made to clear the cache before PDF generation starts to ensure the library reads the proper fonts.
