Intermittent error: "Parameter is not the correct type"

Hello,

 

Since updating Power BI desktop to the february 2024 version (2.126.1261.0 64-bit) I have intermittenlty receive the "Parameter is not the correct type" error.

 

In this case the column is a "normal" numerical colum returned by Power Query.

If I click on another measure and come back to this one the error disappears.

 

 

And this became very annoying as I cannot clearly see when I really have an error or is just a "false positive" and clicking around will fix it.

Is there anything I could do to avoid this error when is not a real error?

 

Kind Regards,

Lucian
