Thread: Tabular Editor

@marcster_uk,

OMG! - this is better than I ever could have imagined. Per the screenshot below:

  1. Full data model
  2. M Code
  3. Tables including measure tables

and crossposting this from the Calculation Groups thread:

Whoa - check this out!

This is the version of Tabular Editor that was just released this week. We finally now have a real development environment. I’m sure there are tons of other treasures buried here, but these are just a few things I found right off the bat:

  1. you can now easily duplicate measures with a single command
  2. you can trace your measure branching structures just by hitting F3 or selecting “Show dependencies”
  3. DAX Formatter is built right into the editor - absolutely no excuse to ever have unformatted DAX again
  4. if you highlight a function in your measure and click this icon, it will take you to the DAX Guide documentation for that function

Just click Save and all your edits, new/duplicated measures, etc. are saved directly back to your PBI file - no more copying back and forth.

Amazing! I’m sure there will be a tsumani of posts, videos, blog entries this week on all the features and capabilities this now provides. Can’t wait!
