Improved handling for thread resolution issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
Queue Processor/Dataflow was moving to STOPPED state due to failed records in its execution. Investigation showed there was a minor logic issue in the queue processor activity which allowed the Page-Remove step to be called even before the pages were actually created, and this has been resolved by improving the recovery from a cleared ThreadContainer which might cause thread resolution issues.

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.

Corrected duplicated select file label reading
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When using a screen reader, the select file button label was announced twice on focus. Investigation showed this was caused by the helper text and tooltip having the same content which sounded like a duplicate reading. To resolve this, the text is now differentiated.

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. Running the accessibility tool generated an error message for the down arrow button on the right. This was traced to a set tabindex 0 for unfocusable items, and has been resolved by adding tabindex="-1" for the overflow menu.

Updated ClientDynamicData HTML Rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
After upgrading from Pega 7 to Pega 8, attempting to open an assignment on the staging environment showed a blank page. This was traced to the system trying to open a declare expression of "PegaComm-" class, and has been resolved by updating the pzClientDynamicData HTML Rule handling for the top level page and enabling the expression calculation checkbox in the Advanced tab of the pyCaseManger7 harness.

Corrected close button screen reader accessibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
The screen reader was reading 'close button' as 'close modal button'. This was traced to a lack of a visual focus indicator, and has been resolved by using the pyFlexModalTemplate for local action which uses close button and has the capability to set default focus on close button. This change affects all local actions in pyWorkCommonActions.
