PBIX File hangs after creating new calculated measure

[J_Swetik]

Hey everybody,

I work on a report and since yesterday I can't create new measures.

When I create a new measure, I see this the whole time.

I can also click on it and press "Enter" as suggested by other community members (see link below) and the box disappears, but I still can't work on the file. I can't even close it, I need to use the taskmanager.

I have this problem just in this file, so it's not the PBI version.

A few weeks ago I had a similar problem, but there I just got the problem when I named two measures identical by accident.

I appreciate any help, thank you!

Hello, 

I had the same issue after turning one of my datasets into a "thin report". I resolved the issue by adding a new tab, then I created a new measure. 

Hope this helps!

Hi, @J_Swetik 

You should make sure to use the latest version of desktop and ensure that the name of the measure must not be repeated.

There is indeed a model issue in LC mode, the engineer is already working on and the fix is in SU09 (september release).
