After updating with the dec version   Version: 2.100.1182.0 64-bit (December 2021)  I can now see the page settings. All is well  .

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.

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.
