Tabular Editor 2 - Setting DataType of a new measure

Hi all,

When creating a new measure, I would also like to set the DataType for the measure, however when trying the below script, I receive an error telling me that "Property or indexer 'Measure.DataType' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only.

Is there a way to set data types with Tabular Editor 2??

//Creates default hex colour measures

var measureTable = Model.Tables["Calculations"]; // Gets the table object specified

var newMeasure = measureTable.AddMeasure( // Add new measure to specified measure table
"Hex Red", // Name
"#E3A711", // DAX Expression
"Conditional\\Tabular Editor Test\\" // Puts into Display Folders dynamically
);
newMeasure.FormatDax(); // Formats DAX automatically
newMeasure.IsHidden = true; // Set hidden or visible
newMeasure.DataType = DataType.String;

Thanks,
Aaron
