Maintain Layer Order is Missing or Moved in the Dec 2021 Version

 Hello PBI users,

I am on the Version: 2.100.1401.0 64-bit (December 2021) and the "Maintain Layer Order Option" for PBI desktop appears to be missing or moved? 

 

I have create a header shape and a footer shape, but I have no option under general where it used to be.

When I search by keyword for "Layer" I get no results. When I search for keyword "order" only border formats show up. Is this a know issue? 

 

Thanks!!

OP here, just to close this issue, it turns out the version I had used was the PBI app from the MS Store . I solved the issue by downloading the PBI executable from the download center. It appears the versions are different.

HI @ABDataGuy777 ,

 

I don't think so MS Store version is different as I am using the same one and I see the Maintain Layer option at my end.

 

Thanks,
