How to hide a measure with "----" in DAX

I have an expression writtenout but want to try and add a new part without deleting the whole thing...

isn't there a way to push down data with "-----" where the text turns green? Something like this?

Working Measure = example(trying out data)

----Previousmeasure(calculate
sum(example

everything past the "---" is still showing up as red underlined text for me
