Updated sorting and filtering icons to work with JAWS
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
As filtering and sorting did not use labels, JAWS was not announcing icon names without labels. This resulted in JAWS not announcing the filter list, that a column was sortable, the presence of a filter icon, or whether a column was sorted ascending or descending. This was due to the "ARIA" attributes not being generated without PegaWAI ruleset1, and the system has been updated to enhance the accessibility.

Apostrophe no longer causes truncated values in MutliSelectList controls
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If an option in a MultiSelectList control contained an apostrophe, the option would be truncated at the apostrophe when the work item was saved. This meant that when the item was reopened, the selected value was not highlighted in control. This was caused by the system building the MultiSelectList control with the standard HTML Select tag and its options elements, which do not encode the special characters like apostrophe while preparing the multi select list control with the values, leaving the browser to take the option value as' till apostrophe' instead of the whole value. To correct this, the value is now encoded using the crossScriptingFilter String API.

All results shown by default for database searches
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

This behavior has been changed and such commands will automatically search and display all results.

Corrected Microsoft Internet Explorer horizontal scroll bar access within large list views
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If the data present in the list view is huge (2000+ characters), selecting the filter option caused the horizontal scrollbar to not be visible in Internet Explorer. As a result, the apply button was not accessible. This was caused by a lack of overflow settings to handle the excessive width for that browser, and has been fixed.

Menu rendering corrected for Attachment Menu controls when using JAWS
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
