The value of the Color property for the textrun which is not a valid Color in SSRS

While setting up background color of a tablix cell or font, below error is generated.

The value of the Color property for the textrun ‘Textbox1.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ is “#00ffffff” which is not a valid Color.

Textbox does not support (partial) transparency color.


Need to select valid RGB color values. (instead of selecting " No Color")
