    I have the same problem in WinForms.

    The issue happens only when the Report instance is attached to a PreviewControl before calling the Designer (e.g. report.Preview = previewControl).

    When I open the Edit Text dialog, the right panel (Data, System Variables, Functions) is completely empty.

    However, if I click Preview inside the designer once, the right panel suddenly appears and everything works normally.

    This happens even if I do not register any data sources.

    So it seems that the designer does not initialize the internal data tree until the first preview is executed.
