where are Forecasting controls in Power BI new formatting interface?

[WillBeeSEA]

Before November 2021, the older interface with the paintroller had an analytics button beside the paint roller, and that analytics button had forecasting controls there.  I do not see it anymore in the new interface paint brush.  I read (but never saw) that if you do not have a minimum number of data points (8 or 9) that no forcasting would be available (the article did not say whether it was greyed-out or gone), but my data has many more than that.

Question 1: Where are the forecasting controls now? 

Question 2: Are there other requirements of the data that would cause the forecasting controls to not be available?
