Maps and signatures inside layout groups scroll correctly

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

A map configured in the screen was getting grayed out while scrolling horizontally. Analysis showed that when an address map is inside a layout group, the layout group swipe was triggered instead of scrolling. To resolve this, the target parent now has the data attribute "data-nogestures" = true so the layout group swipe will not be triggered. This will also prevent swipe on signature while scrolling horizontally.

Resolved touch events issue with updated Google Chrome

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

After upgrading Google Chrome, touch events on a flow action under the Action Button in a case or on the application under "Launch web interface" were not reacting and the flow actions were not accessed. Investigation showed that Google Chrome's latest upgrade (79.0.3945.130) removed the ontouchstart property in the window, causing the isTouchable capability identification method to fail. This has been resolved by adding a check for navigator.maxTouchPoints to identify for Google Chrome whether the device involved has a touchscreen.

Corrected iosVersion handling for getDirections

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

When opening the map function in the iPhone app, it first navigated to Google maps but clicking on 'get directions' opened Apple maps. This was traced to pzpega_control_actions_getDirections. When using the getMapURL function the value being assigned for iosVersion dictates the behavior: If the iosVersion is greater than 8 it opens Google maps, else Apple maps. However, an error caused the value to be sent as string instead of integer, causing the iosVersion check to fail. This has been corrected.

Improved handling for attachments not using UTF-8 encoding

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

When an email was received that used a charset encoding other than UTF-8, special characters in the HTML body were not displayed and instead the replacement character was shown. To resolve this, the system will read the encoding from the email rather than use the meta tag, and will add the attachment's HTML encoding information in Data-WorkAttach-File so that the same can be used to process and display the original HTML properly.

Performance improvements for opening cases with embedded images

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Opening cases containing email interactions was taking an excessive amount of time. This was traced to the use of embedded images, icons, etc, in the message body and signature, and was caused by the pyGetAttachmentsbyCID activity running multiple times due to discussion threads that were duplicated over and over. In some cases, more than 360 calls to the database were seen. This has been resolved by shifting some case opening processes to executing when the listener thread gets the mail, and storing the results in a .pynote property, and a URL will be used to get images instead of embedding them directly to the HTML. If preferred, this can be reverted to the previous behavior by changing the when rule (pyUseCachedHtmlForDisplay) to false.

Resolved timeout errors related to getIndexInfo

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

When attempting to import large files (around 300MB) via Designer Studio a time out error was seen, but the same upload worked as expected from the command line. Investigation showed that the "approximate" argument in getIndexInfo caused wasteful analytic operations to be run on the database, hampering performance. To resolve this, areas where the results of the analysis are not needed have been modified to have aApproximate set to be true so it will not be run.
