So guys, I'm having some troubles with BI's loading time. I understand that the data I'm using is actually heavy. But I've been waiting for a table to run for like 30 minutes. It has this little loading screen thing on the top left corner of my table. I would like to cancel this and try again. But I don't want to close my app. How do I stop this. In excel we have the "esc" to stop actions and operations.
Hi @ilyakoslov ,
You could try the new feature Pause visual queries to prevent the visual from updating until you're ready:
