Added subprocess cleanup for hasPreviousTask loop
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
The mobile app hung on a specific scenario where there were no displayable shapes in the flow path (all decision shapes) and the pyFlowPath became empty but wasn't removed from the pxFlow page. This was traced to environmental loops present in the application, and this has been resolved by ensuring that while going back, completed subprocesses are completely removed from the pxFlow on pyworkpage.

Filter popup misalignment on grid corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After clicking on a grid filter, the filter popup had two scrollbars for adjustment and did not stay on the grid while scrolling the screen. This has been fixed by modifying the CSS style of overflow, which was previously using one that was meant for tablets and which affected position calculation for overlays in touchable laptops.

Update Survey Work Objects' utility differentiates between survey and other objects
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Running the Update Survey work object utility calls the “pxUpgradeSurveyProperties” datatransform, which has a 'when' rule to call the function “@pzSurveyUpgradeSetProperty” to replace the Questionnaire page in the first step. This function was failing with a logged exception when it was passed a string instead of the page it was expecting. This issue occurred when the WO did not have survey data structure, and was due to the Survey Utility being intended to upgrade only Pega Survey class instances. In order to allow for more flexibility, the Survey Upgrade Utility has now been enhanced to differentiate between survey and other objects to resolve the exceptions.

Pulse delete icon repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After upgrade, it was no longer possible to delete one's own comment in Pulse. This was traced to the section pzDeleteMessage having two dynamic layouts with icon as image configured. During runtime, this section was present in the DOM yet the icons were not visible when the conditions configured were returned as true. This was caused by an error in the generated java for the layout, and has been corrected.

Corrected mobile password control behavior on failed validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Given a section on mobile where the out-of-the-box password control was used on a textbox with input field of type Password to set a new password, failed validation on the field caused the cursor on the input field to jump to the left. It was then not possible to delete the text or correct the placement of the cursor. This was traced to a missing type check for password in isTextBox(), and has been corrected.

Color codes will not be saved as message tags
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When the pxCreateAndManageTriageWork activity created pulse message (M-) Cases that included the inbound email body message, it called the pySaveTagsInPost activity to save any tag references in the post message by using the pyObject property value. In some scenarios where the message content was from a mail client which embedded style color codes with “#” (eg: #B5C4DF), Pega identified those values as tags and added those tags to the pulse message. To resolve this, the system will format the message text before parsing it to save tags.

Added handling for offline mobile attachments using PRFiles and Repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Attaching a file on mobile and then immediately clicking on it to open it either did not open the attachment or the attachment opened and then the app stopped working with a "Sync Failed" error. Attachments were not synchronized on the server, and when synchronization was re-tried the attachment was duplicated on attachment list. This was traced to the system being configured to use PRFile API for synchronizing attachments along with Repositories to store attachments; when the processing "commitAttachment" action was processed, it called the Work-.AttachFile activity to finalize attachment upload, but the activity was called without the mandatory attachment InputStream required when using PRFile + Repositories. This has been resolved by ensuring there is a call to Work-.AttachFile with InputStream in cases where PRFiles and Repositories are enabled.

Pulse @mention will avoid triggering search request if no suggestion list is available
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Search threads were causing requestor Lock Exceptions due to poorly optimized queries sent to ElasticSearch when a Pulse mention was attempting to look up a person (e.g. "@"+typing) and the search of case objects to match to that search were performing poorly. To resolve this, an update has been made to avoid triggering requests if the suggestions list is not available for the search query.

Local user lookup modifed to use requestor level data page to improve performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
In a system with many users (over 40k), attempting to search for a user to send a private message was taking an excessive amount of time. Analysis found that all of the users were being loaded at once in a page list of type Code-Pega-List. This led to errors indicating the Page List property had more elements than the specified threshold, but pagination could not be added as the activity and RD are final. To improve performance, this process has been modified to use a data page at the requestor level instead.
