Description
If you create a virtual field "v_field_1" in a shapefile which contains values, you can style the layer using this field such as Categorized or Graduated style.
But if you create another virtual field "v_field_2" which takes values from "v_field_1" (e.g. using a simple expression like: "v_field_1"), then "v_field_2" cannot be styled. When you go to either the Categorized or Graduated style and select "v_field_2", it is blank.
I am using QGIS 2.14.3-Essen for Windows 7 64-bit.

The values of "v_field_2" are correctly calculated in the attribute table but just don't show up when being styled.
