Here I showed how to include a text input and a dropdown list in a custom R HTML visual. Now I've tried to include a color picker. I entered the following node in capabilities.json:
"Color": {
"displayName": "color",
"description": "color",
"type": {
"fill": {
"solid": {
"color": true
}
}
}
},
This indeed produces a color picker. But then, except for black and white, the color received in the R script does not correspond to the color chosen in Power BI:
Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? If this is a bug, where can I report it?
