Corrected IE handling of date picker in Report Definition custom sections
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
A report definition configured to use a custom section for filtering caused a JS error in IE browsers when selecting dates from the date picker multiple times. In IE only, the DOM object containing the popup is removed from the DOM after refreshing, but the reference, _container, is not nulled. As a result, IE was trying to reuse a DOM object that wasn't present on the screen. This has been corrected.

Auto-refresh only available for Section Tabs
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When the "Refresh when active" checkbox was checked in a harness used in the Case Manager dashboard, creating or closing a WO did not update this page automatically. This is because auto-refresh is unsupported in the harness; it is better to use Section Tabs (the best practice statement explains why) and they are encouraged over using Harness tabs. In order to make this use clear, the auto-refresh checkbox will not be displayed in harness tabs.

Remedied spurious size alert from the attachments viewer
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When listing attachments from History & Attachment display, the work object was re-read for each attachment. If the work object had many attachments, the alert "PEGA0004 alert (50MB DB threshold)" would appear regardless of the actual attachments' size. This has been adjusted so the RUF attachment access makes use of the existing WorkPage instead of re-reading it from the database.

Spellcheck on text area fixed for IE8
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Using IE8, a text area with SpellCheck enabled generates the error "Script Error: Message: 'null' is null or not an object" if there is more than one line present. This was caused by the handling of the check for list length, and has been modified to work with all browsers.

CorrNew activity can send email in sync or batch
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When attempting to send email correspondence in synchronous mode i.e. not via the agent processing, the activity always queued it to the agent even when the Activity CorrNew SendNow param was set to true. To correct this, the system will pass the value of a BatchSend param based on the value of the SendNow param: email will be sent immediately If SendNow is set to 'yes', or will be queued for batch processing if SendNow is set to 'no'.

Focus correctly set for dynamic select using accessibility
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When using a cascading dynamic select control configuration with the PegaWAI accessibility ruleset, setting the focus of the first DS list did not work when attempting to navigate the UI components via the keyboard. When reaching the first DS control, users could only select the next item in the list and then the focus switched to the second DS list immediately. The DynamicSelect control was missing a name attribute, and has been updated to address the focus issue.

Improved accessibility for UI properties
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When a property is put on the UI from a different Page the generated UI was not setting the correct LabelFor - it striped the Page context but didn't strip the dot from the front of the property. Accessibility JAWS and other assistive technologies were therefore not associating the label with the input and did not read it out for the given input. The label generation function has been changed to address the reported issue.

Drop-down focus modified for accessibility
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When an onChange event is set on a dropdown (select) while using the accessibility framework, the focus automatically shifted onto the next element in the UI. This was not the desired behavior, and the system has been modified.

Improved handling for Case notes when spellchecker is active
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
If a lot of content was added for a case Note, clicking on the Notes tab caused the text to display in a big yellow box which could not be dismissed. This was traced to the spell checker not properly handling RTE's hidden textarea field, and the code has been modified to correct this.
