I beg your pardon, but I'm getting a bit confused, what I've dowloaded & tried from this page, what's actual version was then, instead of "1.4.2.0"?:

Now, looking further, I've just learnt that what's declared on that page it is not necessarily true, but one should consult the "About" from the visual icon to understand which version is being actually used on PBI desktop.

At least, next time I'll be more aware how to find out.

Further testing your last DEV build 1.5.0.0(https://github.com/zBritva/charticulator-visual-community/actions/runs/11606847361), by using this:

and so obtaining this:

I've found that case, editors opens as expected:

So this issue referring to Nested Editor not showing up, could be closed on this DEV 1.5.0.0.

While other Nesting's issues may now arise at least on this DEV 1.5.0.0 :

1. Data axis auto scaling(i.e. attributes "Auto max value" or "Auto min value") does not look to trigger any axis autoscaling action when PBI changes the Dataset underneath.
2. If we have defined a X-Axis category (e.g. "Z Year") on main editor as:

... this category seems NOT to be passed properly as a data filter to Nested Chart, since data axis appears always showing ALL categories while data is displayed as filtered by "Z Year" category:

Thanks! I will investigate issue.

How Power BI works with visuals.

All visuals are available in Appsource, Power BI loads them internal CDN (yes, even if you import the visual from a file, if GUID of the visual matches with GUID of the visual from CDN), To break it, you need to check "Develop a visual" property, the option works while report is open, on reopening the report, it resets.

@SMusento23 The Charticulator doesn't updates nested chart scales, it's related to old limitation: https://github.com/microsoft/charticulator/pull/965

There is plan to fix this issue, not ETA for that
