Issues with Analytics Pane in Custom Visual
I've gone ahead and raised an issue on the github repo.
https://github.com/microsoft/PowerBI-visuals-tools/issues/351
Hi Anonymous ,
Thanks for your reply.
You are right about the "renderContantLine"-function. But in this case I am only able to create just one line because I do not get the "+Add" again once I created a constant line. In that case there is only one line...
One of my questions is now. How do I get this "+Add"-button to be able to create multiple lines?
Regards
Paul
Hi paul-maessenn,
There's no multi instance support yet, so you currently cannot add further instances to an object. 1 is the limit 😞

Hi dm-p , Anonymous
Indeed I completely missed the limitation about multi-instance support also.
Then there is just one issue left...
As you can see in the initial post the analytics pane is rerendered every time something is changed. Can this be solved?

Paul
Hi paul-maessen,
It's a bit late in the evening for me to check out your code and reproduce locally, and I'm having a look at your repo on my phone but if I had to guess, it looks like you might be executing VisualSettings.enumerateObjectInstances three times in your Visual.enumerateObjectInstances method (here, here and also here in the console.log). Each time this is executed, even for logging, it's going to enumerate your objects and probably refresh the pane each time. I might try to use the const declared in the first occurrence in your log statement and your return statement so you don't re-exexute the method again and see if this mitigates things.

I have noticed the same re-rendering behaviour in the example bar chart code (https://github.com/microsoft/PowerBI-visuals-sampleBarChart). Having done a few checks I can see that the enumerateObjectInstances() function seems to be called only once.
