Escape added to Radio button field value to handle HTML tags
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
A radio button with a field label to display a help icon and to open the help URL when the icon was clicked did not display as intended. Changing the control to text area produced the desired results. This was traced to the radio button's label being assigned to a field value which returned a string that at some points contained HTML tags, and has been resolved by escaping the pyLabelFor value before assigning it to the aria-label attribute of the radio button's div tag.

Dragresize plugin removed from RTE for better Microsoft browser compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
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 8.2.4
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.

Tab names maintained after Ajax container refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using an Ajax container in Tabs mode, a browser refresh with multiple tabs opened caused the active tab name to be changed to the main tab name. This was caused by the work object name being lost during the refresh, and has been corrected.

Assignment locking smoothed for slow network async requests
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In situations with slow network async Ajax requests, locking was not being properly released between requests. This caused an issue with sub-flows that had a Spinoff Flow configured to route the assignments in the sub-process and the main process to separate operators. In order to resolve this, the close tab process has been updated to remove the corresponding thread and release the lock.

Localization added for currency values using commas vs decimal points
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Excel within PRPC was not properly localizing for the use of decimal and comma as thousand and decimal separators for decimal/double currency property values, a use that is common in non-English installations. The records editor has been changed to support localization for properties of type double and decimal.

Enhanced error handling for WebSphere class conflicts
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
An error caused by a class conflict issue in WebSphere was being generated when exporting Process Flow as XPDL. In order to clarify the limitations in this use, changes have been made to the XSLTRANSLATE Activity to add an extra catch that handles any style sheet errors explicitly and provides an informative error message.

New 'Break Long Word' sub-setting added to 'Wrap Text'
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When lengthy text was present inside the cell of a grid configured as a fixed size / fixed header grid, misalignment between column header and row cells was seen. This was an issue with the text display. The word-wrap property earlier was set to break-word to enable wrapping of long words to multiple lines, but this was not working as expected for values that do not have a whitespace/break. To resolve this, when the 'Wrap text option' is clicked, the new configuration option 'Break long word' will be available to allow line breaks between letters.
