    The Extended Data Type behind the Color field is EcoResColorName. It currently has a size of 10 symbols in AOT. Your is longer

    You should increase the site of that EDT in AOT (same for Configuration/Size/Style, if you have values longer than 10 symbols). The property to change is called StringSize
