Please add the auto-complete for the formula editor for custom columns.

I think the advanced editor also needs to have syntax highlighting. It would be great also to have a keyboard shortcut for invoking the advanced editor without having to right-click on a query.

1. Advanced Editor should remember size of window upon previous close. 2. Change Advanced Editor to Non-Modal window to allow continuous editing/updating while viewing results.

'+1 for the highlighting errors and also a find shortcut (Ctrl-F)

Also, add syntax prompts (like in Excel) to help build queries, and a direct access to a better reference for the commands

Adding Intellisense to PBI Desktop would be really useful and helpful.

Writing code in Notepad ++ and then copying and pasting into the advanced editor is not very convenient
