Analytics Pane not working in Developer mode?
Hi WouterBo ,
Developer mode is used for testing packaged updates to custom visuals that are already published in AppSource, as Power BI always serves the published version of a known visual by default.
This switch temporarily overrides that and allows developers to confirm new functionality is packaged correctly prior to submission.
When testing or updating a visual that is already published, make sure you're using the correct version of the visual without changing the GUID. To override the AppSource version with a local file version, enable Developer mode in either Power BI Desktop, or Power BI service.
For reference:
Test a Power BI custom visual before submitting it for publication
And please make sure the environement has been configured correctly.
Set up your environment for developing a Power BI visual
You may refer to this blog to learn more about how to add Analyticss pane in custom visual.

Perhaps I should have made clear that I am a developer (which is why I posted in this sub forum).
I use the developer mode to be able to run custom visuals that I am currently developing. It allows me to use debugging tools to debug my code.
My problem is that previously I was able to create a custom visual that has the Analytics Pane. However, while in developer mode the Analytics pane no longer appears. This seems like a bug. It only appears after I build the custom visual, but that does not allow me to debug the code.
