Formatting Bug in PBI Desktop

In the last few versions of PBI Desktop, there is a very annoying formatting bug. With an object selected on the canvas, sometimes nothing appears under the Format Visual icon, or the values under Properties are for the LAST object selected, NOT the currently selected object.
