Advanced Editor short cut not working.

[BenBlackswan]

Hello everyone, 

According to the Power Query Documentation, Ctrl + SHift + M opens Advanced Editor. 

However, it does not work on my computer in power bi.

Hi @BenBlackswan 

According to the document, these shortcuts are available in the Query Editor in Power Query Online. They are not available in Power BI Desktop. Are you using the shortcut in Power BI Desktop or in Power Query Online?

Based on my test with PQ online in Power BI Dataflow, this shortcut is available there. I tested it with this Service version: 13.0.23358.48. May I know your service version if you don't have that shortcut in PQ online? 

Best Regards,

Yes you are correct, I didn't read the part that these are for online only.

Do you know if there is a shortcut for PBI desktop?

According to the first link as below, you can first add Advanced Editor to your Quick Access Toolbar, then hold on Alt key and the corresponding number to open it.

Thank you.

Note to myself in the future, to add to quick access toolbar, right click on Advanced Editor button in the ribbon.
