Corrected multiplying errors on dirty flag
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
The error message "Value cannot be blank" was appended on the screen every time the browser gave a dirty flag and OK was clicked. This was due to the context for the error message not being set correctly after toggleErrorMessage, and has been corrected. In addition, due to Context being incorrect when there was a check on the errors on the element, further work has been added to set the correct context before checking if errors exist.

IsMobile 'when' configurations are properly displayed in mashup preview
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Given two layouts configured based on the 'when' rule pyIsMobile, the mashup preview did not work in the mobile form factor. This was only an issue with App Studio preview of a mashup and did not have an impact on the enduser use of the mashup, and the same mashup code viewed on mobile/desktop worked as expected. Investigation showed that the 'when' rule was evaluated correctly for the application level, but in mashup it was evaluated to false even when opened in mobile view from App studio. The Rule-Utility-Functionchecks to see if an overridden useragent has been specified and if it has, then it uses it for the preview in App Studio, however in mashup the userAgentDetails did not contain any of the satisfying conditions under which the condition might be returned as false. The issue in this case was traced to the Rule-Utility-Functionneeding to handle the scenario of Mashup Preview by checking if the thread was from the mashup preview, and that has been implemented.

EvaluateConditions properly sets context for refresh section
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Rule Not Found and Unresolved Assembly Errors were seen in production logs after upgrade. Investigation showed that the method context used by pzpega_ui_changetracker.js in "evaluateConditionsOnXThread" was not reset correctly, causing the refresh section response for the Recents List to not be properly updated. This has been resolved by updating the evaluateConditionsOnXThread method to set the proper context after evaluateClientConditions is run.

Read-only text inputs remain read-only after browser refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Read-only text inputs were changing to editable after a browser refresh. This was traced to work done to better handle a displayOnPage GET request that was sent with all of the parameters in the parameter page (data-model) that was causing a 400 Bad Request due to the browser URL length limitations. That issue was resolved by removing the parameters which are not actually required for the displayOnPage GET call during the refresh case; to resolve this issue, the readonly parameter for displayOnpage action has been restored and will be passed.
