how to edit variables in power bi desktop editor

‎02-24-2017 09:10 AM

Hi

 

I have read this https://powerbi.microsoft.com/es-es/guided-learning/powerbi-learning-7-4-dax-expressions/ but when I add a new colum for example I can not edit this readable sentences. When I press return there is not a new line...

 

Any idea please?

 

regards

Try using SHIFT-ENTER to get a new line in the editor.

 

Or download the Excellent DAX Studio which you can connect to your PBI Desktop model and develop there.  This is a must when you get into some more sophisticated DAX.
