Visual.update() not triggered when switching from Reading to Edit View
It works well on my side with Dot Plot custom visual. Can you share code of update method?
InFocusEdit is an focus mode that can be activated by opening ... menu in the right top corner of a csutom visual.
Then you should select Edit. Please note a csutom visual must specify advancedEditModeSupport: true in the capabilities to support Focus Edit Mode.

Just create a new Custom Visual:
> pbiviz new example
then change the update() function to display the viewMode and editMode flags:
public update(options: VisualUpdateOptions) {
if (typeof this.textNode !== "undefined") {
this.textNode.textContent = "ViewMode: " + options.viewMode.toString() + ", EditMode: " + options.editMode;
}
}And insert this into capabilities:
"advancedEditModeSupport": 2,
Results:
Directly after loadSwitching to EditAfter resizing visual in Edit ModeSwitching to Advanced Edit ModeGoing back to Reading view
As you can see, Switching to edit mode does not change the ViewMode (or EditMode), it needs the second update (data or resize update). And viewMode never gets value 2.
Have you filled all of required data fields?
I guess this is a root case of the issue.

Of course I have, as you can see at the top. If I would have not, update() won't be triggered at all.
Could you please share source code and data-set for further investigation as it works well on our side?

I am facing the same problem. When will it be solved?
