Hi!
Please excuse if its a stupid question. It been a month since I started learning Power BI.
Today I notice that my power BI desktop is acting crazy. When i tried to create 'New Measure', instrad of DAX, i found M language working, as shown in the Pic below. Can you please suggest how to reset?
Regards,
Sid

Hi @SDVN ,
In the October Desktop version, the DAX announcement column prompt was replaced with M style, and the parameter prompt was no longer displayed. If you don't want this feature, you can try the version before September.

This is still DAX.
Neither of these is an M function.

@AlexisOlson thank you very much for the response 🙂
Is it supposed to look like the below screenshot? Can you help me understand why the look and feel is changed?
I think it's just a visual style update with the October release of Power BI.
