Disabling the measure

Is there a way to disable a measure? I am trying to fix some measures but as I am fixing it it affects other measures and I do not want to simply delete them before I confirm my fix will work.

    Hi stribor45 ,

     

    You can't really disable a  measure per se. You may change the value of it with something static (eg = BLANK() ) but that will affect the other measures referencing it. You may also pause the visuals so they don't refresh as you edit your measures. You may edit/create measures in Tabular Editor (an external tool) but it doesn't  have the intellisense the native interface has.
