Research direction

Reproduce the issue with the namespace and ComponentProps declarations shown in the report, then inspect the extracted type output. The work is done when TypeAttributes.Color is rendered as its string union rather than only as the namespace-qualified name.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I use namespace to define common types like below:

export declare namespace TypeAttributes {
  type Color =
    | "primary"
    | "secondary"
    | "success"
    | "warning"
    | "danger"
    | "info";
}

and use it in type definition.

export type ComponentProps = {
  /**
   * The color to apply to component
   */
  color?: TypeAttributes.Color;
}

it shows: Type: TypeAttributes.Color instead of "union, one of xxxxx".

any idea how to make this work?
