    Hi Eason,

     

    I downloaded the latest version 2.99.862.0 64 bit (November 2021) and still no luck with existing pbix files. Not sure why it is not working for me. So I have gone back to the old format pane for the time being. The functionality is still in preview. so no worries.

Hi, Joe 

Everything seems normal on my side. 

Can you show a screenshot of the current format pane layout?

When you enable preview features in Options, it usually requires restaring PowerBI Desktop.
