How do I revert to old visualizations pane?

The February update seems to have lost functionality in the visualization pane. How do I revert to the previous version?

      Instead of unchecking New Format Pane, Uncheck, On Object Interactions, then restart Power BI and boom, you will be able to get back the Old Visualization Pane.

        Total genius, thank you very much. For those who have it in Spanish, it goes like this:
        They remove that check, restart and that's it.

      I can´t find where to change the options:

       

      File > Options and settings > Options > Preview Features > Uncheck the New format pane.
      and then Restart the Power BI Desktop

       

      where?

    Any idea how to revert to the new format pane when the option is not available?

      Did you ever figure this out AndrewPF ?  I don't have the option to uncheck either.  Version 2.110.1161.0 64-bit (October 2022)

    Agree. I really don't like the new behaviour. It seems like everything takes a few more clicks to get done now. Is there some advantage that I haven't figured out yet?

    I want to revert back to Old Visualization Pane from the one in the top ribbon but I cant not find the New Format Pan option in the Preview Features. Can anyone help, how to revert back?
