Hi richard-powerbi 

 

Before typing live the space in front of your step, this will allow you to use the Intellisense and keep the step, but you still will need to delete parentheses at the end of the function.

 

I find it annoying too.

    Mariusz Am I crazy or has it been fixed? 😆 I'm not having the problem anymore. Latest version from Store.

      Mariusz I was crazy. It has not been fixed. But it seems to work fine when the next character is a #.

      So a workaround would be to make sure your steps consist of two words or manually give the step #"".

      On a sidenote, anyone knows if it is possible to force PQ to give steps always #""?

    Mariusz yeah that's what I'm doing or sometimes I cut the value and hit tab and paste the value... was hoping there was a better trick.
