DateTime dropdown control will retain entry on validation error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
For a Date Time control with display mode as dropdownlist, choosing just a month or a day from the dropdown and refreshing the section resulted in an invalid date validation and the field being set to the current date. Choosing the date from the calendar icon or filling in all three drop downs worked as expected. This has been resolved by updating the datetime control so that if a dropdown mode with property as type DATE has a validation error on refresh action, the user-entered data will show in the dropdown instead of the current date/time.

Autocomplete correctly sets null values in clipboard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using an autocomplete control with display configuration "In a List", if a property value was null then the value of the property in the clipboard was set as “undefined”. This was due to the pzGetACData activity returning only properties with values and excluding empty properties, causing setProperty to use "undefined" when a property value was not found in the response. To resolve this, a condition has been added to the processAdditionalProperties method to replace an undefined value with an empty string.

Left navigation expansion made accessible for tab/keyboard actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The left navigation "aside" DOM element did not expand if reached with the keyboard tab actions, but did with mouse hover. This has been resolved by updating the selectors for focus within left nav and updating the script to collapse the menu pyAutoCollapseLists section.

Improved performance for Repeat grid display
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade from Pega v7.2 to Pega v8.4, the Repeat grid was taking significantly longer to display the results. This was traced to changes made relating to BAC security that resulted in pzGridOpenAction trying to open each record to find the relevant pzInsHandle. Because this call is not actually required for Data- items, an update has been made to avoid this and improve performance.

Messages cleared from WorkPage so "load more" link works as expected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After being migrated, a link button script for "load more" in a repeating dynamic layer was not rendering more data on the UI if there was an error in pyworkpage. Refreshing the UI to clear the error and clicking the "load more" link then displayed the new set of Data. If no error occurred on pyworkpage, then clicking the "load more" worked the first time. This was traced to the success handler ignoring the response if there were errors on pyWorkPage, and has been resolved by updating the pzinvokerdlpreprocessing activity to add 'Page-Clear-Messages' as the first step.

Corrected column alignment for Report Definition exported to PDF
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Aggregated columns such as count were not properly aligned in the PDF when a report definition was exported. This has been resolved by adding right justification styles in pyReport_ExportToPdfStyles.css. With this change, the PDF will look similar to the report definition displayed in the UI.

Updated resource file paths for mobile images
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, a resource missing error was shown on the mobile UI when accessing a section in an offline mobile app. This was traced to the CSS file having an incorrect path to the 'requiredstar' gif file and has been resolved by updating pzbase-form-level-elements to use webwb instead of an images path.
