Unable to switch from Categorical to Continuous (option vanishing)

I'm pretty sure this is a bug but I want to double check that I'm not doing anythjing stupid here. I have a line chart with date on the X-axis. If I change the axis from "Continuous " to "Categorical" the foermatting flyout changes and the dropdown to change the type dissapears:

The only way I can find to change back is ctrl-z. Am I being an idiot or is this a bug? If the former, how do I change from categorical to continuous? If the latter, how do I report the bug?

 

Thanks!

 

FYI, in case anyone asks - Version: 2.124.2028.0 64-bit (December 2023) and while I do havwe some preview features enabled, I can't think of any that should be impacting this:

Hi @JrBIAnalyst 
This is not a bug and you are also ok 🙂

The continuous axis is an option that doesn't work with the hierarchies.
So you have it when you in a "high level" :

and it disappears after drilling down:
