Repaired shortcut key use in Flow Action default buttons
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After update, the shortcuts configured on flow action buttons stopped working. The previous version displayed the labels "Save" and "Cancel" on the portal and it was possible to use hotkeys to press the button. The updated system displayed "Sa&ve" and "Cance&l" and the shortcut did not work. This was traced to the encoding performed by the CrossScriptingFilter API, and has been resolved by ensuring the correct text value is retained and displayed for use with the hotkeys.

Handling added for invalid numeric range
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When filtering the range in number column with value as “1000000” , the validation message appeared as "1000000 : This results in an invalid numeric range". This has been resolved with an update to use Data-value to get the non-formatted value for decimal.

Accessibility improved for blank field errors in non-auto generated controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When using non-auto generated controls, leaving an edit field blank causes an error message informing that the value cannot be blank. An accessibility issue was seen where this error text was not part of the field label or description, preventing it from being announced by screen readers (NVDA or JAWS) when focus is on the field. This has been corrected by adding aria-describedby in non-template textarea.

Corrected blank areas on maximized view
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
A blank section was displayed when maximizing the reply screen. Investigation showed that when the editor was inside a positioned container with overflow hidden and the editor had a scrollbar with its body height greater than the document, the scrollIntoView would scroll to grey spaces which were originally hidden by overflow. This has been resolved by commenting out scrollintoview, since it is not necessary and scroll position/cursor will be retained without it.

Updated ctx.recordId as variable handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Attempting to create a case using the Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 browser failed and the browser console log recorded the error "Caught exception: TypeError: Unable to get property 'split' of undefined or null reference". This has been resolved by updating the handling for passing the ctx.recordId as variable.

Resolved error in PortalNavigation save
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
An error indicating Rule-UI-Components were either missing or could not be found appeared while using revalidate and save for a PortalNavigation section, though the update completed and worked as expected. This has been resolved by adding validation handling for a section when given a property as the class for the icon source.

Tab key menu navigation updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Using the tab key to navigate links in the left menu would intermittently skip links or not appear to advance. This was an unintended side effect of work done to use the tab key to move out of the portal menu and to the next focusable element, and has been resolved by modifying the re-setting tabindex for left navigation so it will anchor on the first element in the menu list for tab traversal.

Desktop browser java render error corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Attempting to open Clipboard, schedule a report, or perform any activity which generated in a pop-up resulted in a blank screen and browser errors indicating "Uncaught TypeError: (…) is not a function 2. Uncaught TypeError: cannot set property '...' of undefined". This has been resolved by adding a semicolon to the last line of pzpega_desktop_automation_support_js.

Scroll Bar displayed for lengthy sub menu
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The scroll bar on the main CaseManager/Case Worker portals menu was not displayed on the second mouse hover. This was traced to an intermittent issue where max-height was not being calculated correctly if there was a lengthy sub-menu, and has been resolved by ensuring the correct positioning of the menu.
