Resolved in Pega Version 8.8

Ensured correct context for multi-select
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
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.

Improved accessibility for overflow menu tab
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When a tabbled layout group has more tabs than will fit horizontally on the screen, icons appear to the left and right of the visible tabs to scroll through the available tabs along with a drop down list to select from all available tabs.
