Add Text edit capacities to the Advance Editor
Hi v-sgandrathi, thank you for your follow up, unfortunately no. by my post I meant the idea to go to MS developers. for the text-editing I can copy-paste a word file or any other text editor but I want it to be built-in feature within advanced editor. I understand that the advanced editor is a coding environment that isn't necessarily super user-friendly but it can has some Find and Replace, highlighting, tags functions etc. using // isn't effective as it will show as a hint in the query steps while I meant it to be at advanced editor body only. I hope it's clear.
Community SupportHi Teefo,
Thank you for clarifying your requirement. It’s now clear that you’re looking for Microsoft to improve the Advanced Editor with more advanced text-editing features like Find & Replace, syntax highlighting, enhanced formatting, and tagging or annotations that aren’t just step hints. Currently, the Advanced Editor has a basic interface, which can be restrictive for frequent Power Query users, so your feedback is valuable. For product enhancements, the best approach is to submit or upvote this suggestion on the Power BI Ideas site under the Transform Data (Power Query) category, where the engineering team reviews community requests.
