Updated specificity for custom-format inputs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade, custom formatting for a link control was not working in the skin or during runtime. This was an issue where identical format names used for links and text components caused selectors from the text area to take precedence over link styles, and has been resolved by updating styles to increase specificity for inputs instead of links.

Added handling for validation after inactivity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
A Validate rule was configured to add an error to a field if MyPageList had any page where MyProperty was not empty. The rule worked correctly if there was no pause in using the UI, but if the UI was left for a few minutes and then the field was changed, the Validate rule always evaluated the expression to true. This has been resolved by adding a null check in Utilities.countInPageList() function.

Backslash '\' now showing as expected in autocomplete and search
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
The AutoComplete control was filtering out backslash '\' characters when displaying the values in the list of matches, causing failures with search and autocomplete. The Rule-Utility-Function for the getProperty has been corrected to allow '\' to be handled properly.

Added scrolling for fixed size modal with buttons offscreen
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade, the modal format "Large Fixed" for the Modal Dialog in a local action was not working as expected when the screen was reduced in size. It as not possible to scroll down the modal dialog, and the "cancel" and "submit" buttons were no longer available. In standard modal, the cancel and submit buttons are always shown in the view port. When the modal is fixed format, the width and height of the modal are set to a fixed size. In that case, if the window is resized it is not possible to navigate to cancel and submit buttons that are offscreen. To resolve this, scroll has been added to allow accessing the cancel and submit buttons in case of fixed size modal that does not fit the window.

Upgrade compatibility enhanced for Pega-ConditionBuilder ruleset
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
In Pega v8.2.5, the Pega-ConditionBuilder ruleset was added as part of the PegaMarketing application. When these enhancements were promoted to a platform ruleset beginning with Pega v8.4, the function names were modified with PZ/PX prefixes due to the corresponding validation standards in place for rules created in platform rulesets. Unfortunately, this introduced an upgrade impact. Due to the function name change, strategies failed when attempting to evaluate the functions configured in the filter component. Eg: @string.ContainsIgnoreCase function is part of the Pega-ConditionBuilder ruleset, which was not available. To resolve this, the following function aliases have been created in this release:ContainsIgnoreCase StartsWithIgnoreCase EndsWithIgnoreCase CompareDateTimeToSymbolicDate

Certificate updates handled across nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
An SSL handshake exception was occurring when running a Connect-REST call automatically from the flow as a background process on a background processing node. The same Connect-REST worked fine when run manually. The exception detailed the issue as "SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: None of the TrustManagers allowed for trust of the SSL certificate(s) provided by the remote server to which this client attempted a connection." This was traced to a pulse change scenario where the reloading of the certificates was not happening on all the nodes after adding a new certificate or deleting a certificate. This has ben resolved by adding the DATA-ADMIN-SECURITY-CERTIFICATE class into the UpdatesCacheUtils.java class.

Japanese character support added to Report Definition PDFs
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When Report Definition contains Japanese characters in its report name, column, value, etc., the exported PDF was not showing the Japanese characters incorrectly. This was due to a missing font-family for the PDF export mode, and has been corrected.

Corrected mobile tab layout highlighting
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
When switching between three tabs in a layout group (Other � Mobile Tabs) in a section, the highlight was appearing on the active tab and the inactive tabs. This has been resolved by updating the CSS generation to not consider hover styles for touchable devices.

Added handling for SOAP elements with empty case types
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
If customers created a SOAP element with an attribute like Text, the generated WSDL from services wizard did not have a type for the element "CaseStatus" and failed validation with the error "Element 'CaseStatus' with empty content type cannot have text or element content." The XML has been updated to correctly handle this use case.
