Hi @Gomaa72 ,

 

According to your description, in the latest version of Powerbi Desktop the DAX public bar prompt has been changed to M style and no longer displays parameter prompts. However, this is not explicitly stated in the new updated documentation.

 

If you still prefer the previous dax style, you can use the old version before October.


Best Regards,
Henry

Try reinstalling Power BI desktop or going back to the previous version.

A few people have been reporting the same problem this week.
