Description
Using this code:
const slice: powerbi.visuals.FormattingSlice = {
displayName: displayName,
uid: uid,
control: {
type: powerbi.visuals.FormattingComponent.ColorPicker,
properties: {
descriptor: {
objectName: object,
propertyName: propertyName,
selector: dataViewWildcard.createDataViewWildcardSelector(dataViewWildcard.DataViewWildcardMatchingOption.InstancesAndTotals),
altConstantValueSelector: null,
instanceKind: powerbi.VisualEnumerationInstanceKinds.ConstantOrRule
},
value: { value: color },
}
}
};
A conditional formatting pop up is shown after pressing the Fx button, with the title:
'Undefined - ' followed by whatever 'object' is.
I am expecting the propertyName to be printed where 'undefined' is shown. This is how the previous version of the API worked as far as I know.

Research direction
Start by tracing the FormattingSlice control descriptor from the supplied JavaScript example into the conditional-formatting popup that displays the title. Check how objectName and propertyName are resolved for the ColorPicker, then verify that the popup shows propertyName instead of “Undefined” before the object name.
