ESRI Map resetting point colour and shape

It was working fine until the March update, I even tried recreating the visual from scratch and the issue still arises. It works fine if I keep the default colouring and size scheme but if I try to edit them then it just resets. It seems to only be affected when using both size and colour fields. If I only use one of the fields it works fine.
Hi Anonymous,
It sounds like Symbol color property overwrites analysis ed ArcGIS map data label color configure to the default color. What mode of ArcGIS map are you test? Can you please provide more detail information?

Hello Anonymous ,
I'm not sure what you meant by mode of ArcGIS but here is a sample of data used so you can hopefully reproduce the issue.
id lat long total category 0 36.14146 -108.34774 $ 1,050 Excellent 1 39.69714 -112.83995 $ 2,654 Good 2 38.08594 -108.33771 $ 6,541 Bad 3 37.66853 -117.44883 $ 1,278 Excellent 4 37.18471 -111.44517 $ 5,874 Good 5 36.4156 -108.37074 $ 13,540 Bad 6 36.11616 -105.21411 $ 8,552 Excellent 7 39.52333 -110.23073 $ 21,473 Good 8 39.90384 -105.11143 $ 98,563 Bad 9 38.84803 -103.36336 $ 12,000 Excellent 10 35.84224 -107.20388 $ 50,000 Good I put the lat and long, then used the Category column in the color field and the Total column in the size field. It will correctly show different colours based on the category and sizes based on the dollar amount. But if I click on Edit on the visual, then go to the Symbol Style tab I will see what is shown on the picture on my first post. The Symbol Color section will show undefined.
If I try to make changes on the Symbol Size section the points will revert to a blue colour. If I click on Revert to defaults in the Symbol Color section it will reshow the different colours for the points, but it will not save them if I go to a different page then go back to the map page.
Sorry if this is a lot of text but hopefully this helps.
Thank you for your help.
HI Anonymous,
After play with your sample data, I found it seems like not loading and analyzing original data to symbol color settings. You can click on 'restored to default' label to force loading color map data and reset to original color formatting for your data labels.
