Count of remaining characters in a text box made accessible
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
In order to improve accessibility, aria-describedby has been added to the Text Area character counter span element's ID so the remaining number of characters to enter in the text field will be read by the screen reader.

Dragresize plugin removed from RTE for better Microsoft browser compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When a messge was sent through Pega chat while using the Edge web browser, the text field where the message was entered before the send button was pressed did not get cleared. This was traced to the Edge browser throwing a Permission Denied error while attempting to access a detached DOM element. To resolve this, the 'dragresize' plugin has been removed from RTE as its implementation is not compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 and Edge.

Shortened URLs (bit.ly) supported with custom image size
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
Marketing offers were very slow to load, often generating requestor lock exceptions due to the wait time. This was traced to one cell in one section that housed a company logo: the source to icon had a shortened "bit.ly" URL when the ImgaeIO API in Java expected the actual URL as its input. The API could not convert the shortened URL to the actual URL, resulting in the retries and connection failure. To resolve this, 'javax.imageio.ImageIO' invocation will happen only when the image size is auto. If custom height and width are used to display an image, Pega will not depend on the Java library and the system will be able to resolve the shortened URL.

RemoveThreadLEvelPages modified to preserve primary page for current action
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
The Job Scheduler Executions drill down showing success/fail results was inconsistently showing results for the wrong jobs when sorting by column (job name). Unsorted, it opened the correct results. This was traced to the pyRemovethreadLevelPages activity removing all pages including datapages on doUIAction, causing any action performed on the UI after sorting the grid to open a wrong page. This was an issue for both the Job scheduler page and the Queue processor page. To resolve this, the pyRemovethreadLevelPages activity has been modified to not remove the data page if it is the primary page for the current action.

RepeatIndex generation improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
Controls in a triple layout included in a row repeat did not have matching unique IDs and label for attributes. This was due to incomplete generation of the repeatindex for the ID, and has been fixed.

Grid Header checkbox behavior modified for consistency
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
Unexpected behavior was seen when clicking on the Checkbox present in Header: all other checkboxes changed their state (which was expected), but if the the Readonly checkbox was checked it was also changing the state the first time (which was not expected). After this first state change, the read-only checkboxes were not changing state (which is correct behavior). Previously, the behavior of Select All / CheckAll checkboxes was as follows: If the SelectAll / CheckAll checkbox is checked - Individual checkboxes are checked only when they are NOT disabled If the SelectAll / CheckAll checkbox is unchecked - Individual checkboxes are unchecked irrespective of their DISABLED state The behavior has now been changed as below: If the SelectAll / CheckAll checkbox is checked - Individual checkboxes are checked only when they are NOT disabled If the SelectAll / CheckAll checkbox is unchecked - Individual checkboxes are unchecked only when they are NOT disabled

Commas removed from filter values to resolve validation errors
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
When using a Grid layout configured in a section rule, clicking the Filter option and entering a comma separated value in the "To" field in a decimal-type column resulted in an "Invalid numeric range" option message. No error was seen if comma separated values were entered in both the "To" and "From" fields. Because the checkRangeFilter() function in ui_grid.js uses parseFloat() API to extract the decimal content entered in the search boxes, decimals after commas are ignored and validation failed due to the fields not matching. This issue has been fixed by implicitly removing any commas entered by the user.
