Parse XML validation default set to "Never"
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In some cases, the parse XML rules function was not correctly mapping all of the input types. The root cause for the different failure modes seen was found to be that validation was set to "Always" by default, and the rule data did not reflect this until after a manual Save or Save-As. The default has now been set to "Never", and can be manually adjusted to "Always" or "When" as desired.

Variable added for non-English fonts in RTE
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Previously, the dropdown for font styles in pxRichTextEditor control contained only English-language fonts and did not include fonts for other languages such as Japanese. To enhance the localization, the global variable 'window.customCKEditorFonts' has been added to override 'CKEDITOR.config.font_names' when desired.

Customization corrected for RRHeader section of RD
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If the RRHeader section item was customized and renamed, opening Report Definition and clicking "Edit Report Title" did not produce the expected results even with the "Edit Report Title" command enabled. This was due to the RRHeader section being hard-coded; this is now loaded dynamically to allow for customization.

Search ability corrected for rule names containing spaces
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
While a space was allowed in the rule name of a report category rule, searching for a rule name with a space generated the error "Unable to open instance Error: Can't find record". This was due to a missing JavaIdentifier validator for the "pyCategoryName" property in "Rule-Category" class, and this has been added.

Added Finish Assignment check for old harnesses
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After upgrade, a failing post flow action validation created the inability to correct the errors and resubmit using a pxButton which performed an out of the box "Finish Assignment." When trying to do so, a busy indicator was displayed and the application froze. This was caused by an incorrect legacy harness pointer for the Action section. A check for old harnesses has been added, and the submit API now sets the target of form submit for finish assignment to the parent window.

Added ownership check for DeleteModalHeader process
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When closing a modal dialog, the dropdown in the parent window became disabled and did not allow further selection. This was caused by the modal js throwing an error while attempting to remove an element that was not its child. To avoid this, the deleteModalHeader js API has bene modified to check the parent/child relationship before proceeding with the delete.

Documentation updated regarding Update Wizard avoiding deadlocks
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Following migration, running the Update Wizard tool (Designer Studio -> System -> Upgrade -> Update Existing Applications) caused deadlock errors. This was actually an error/omission in product documentation: the connection property 'webSphereDefaultIsolationLevel' must be set in the datasource prior to running the wizard, and this has been noted.

Flow name labels draw from proper cache
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
A flow name label was taking the short description of the starting flow in the class group and appending the class names to it after the parenthesis. This has been corrected by ensuring the code is fetching from the correct cache to populate the label.

Timezone handling corrected for Locale Settings tool
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When the Locale Settings tool was opened, the time zone was always shown as Etc/GMT+12 and did not reflect the current operator time zone. The time zone used is correctly amended based on the option chosen, but the 'selected' option in the select HTML code was not set to correctly reference the actual option selected. This has been fixed by adding a check to set the time zone from the step page if it does not exist in the recurrencedetailspage.
