Are there plans to support multiple columns in the Input Slicer as well? This would somehow enable a universal search option across the model.

Re: Introducing Markers in Azure Maps for Power BI

I wonder if it is just the store version.
https://uploads.disquscdn.c... It’s odd to highlight the marker feature while it isn’t available in the Service and without mentioning that upfront.

I downloaded the latest version of Power BI Desktop. While there is a marker option, conditional formatting is not available unlike in the demo. There is no fx button next to the image url field. Also the markers are not yet in the service?

Where can I find the Feb 2020 update? Can't find the blog post about it.

Re: Updated Ribbon Experience for Power BI Desktop

enad — Mon, 18 Nov 2019 19:08:57 -0000

Very nice updates. Thanks.

i do have a few suggestions:
-allow themes to be applied to a particular page only. I wanted to use one but I realized that it was being applied to the whole report and I couldn't undo it so I had to close the pbix then reopened it.
-I was pretty alarmed for not being able to switch to another but similarly structured Power BI dataset but thankfully, I figured out how. Before the Nov update, I would go Edit Queries then "data source settings" but now it is hidden under Options and settings from File menu. It would be great to have a button for "data source settings" in Home tab
-Option to be able to set the formatting of a measure/calculated column before even creating it.
-Option to be able to set all the desired formattings first before applying them. They're currently being applied one by one which can take some time.

Re: Dax Formatter by SQLBI

That's weird. I tried formatting this expression several times last night but would always return an error. It now works fine.

Hello,

It seems that DAX formatter cannot handle this kind of expression which returns just fine in Desktop

Status5 =
CALCULATE( average('Table'[Status]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[ID]))=5

Re: FILTER vs CALCULATETABLE: optimization using cardinality estimation | SQLBI

Hi Marco,

Is there a way to determine how expensive a filter measure is? What tool to use, etc?
Also, considering that this post was made years ago, has there been any improvement on how Power BI handles this?
Thanks!

Re: Announcing Persistent Filters in the Power BI Service

enad — Wed, 21 Mar 2018 20:16:33 -0000

Hi Alan,

Regarding item 2, does this mean that just the mere addition to my report of a custom visual that doesn't support persistent filters will disable the feature itself or just the selection on the visual will not be saved?

Re: Announcing Persistent Filters in the Power BI Service

enad — Wed, 21 Mar 2018 12:24:05 -0000

I noticed the persistent filters feature just yesterday. It doesn't seem to be working for all of my reports. What are the limitations?

Re: Using KEEPFILTERS in DAX - SQLBI

enad — Mon, 19 Mar 2018 09:52:06 -0000

i have read this before. It's only now that I understood. I guess if you're too novice for DAX, some simple formula can appear really complicated. Thanks for the tutorial!

Coinbase had an insider issue. They're still dealing with it. Coinbase is not the only exchange out there anyway.

I agree. There should be concrete and definite reasons/facts why the writer claims these cryptos as such.

This is a great idea.

Hi,

This doesn't seem to support UNICHAR. Entered this formula which works fine in Power BI but just got a very long error with all those functions, etc:

Stars =
var star1 =
REPT(UNICHAR(9733), round([Score],0))
&
REPT(UNICHAR(9734), 5-round([Score],0))
return if(isblank([Score]),blank(),star1)

By the way, thanks for this tool. Saves me time formatting my formula.

Hello,

Does this mean that although my report recipients don't have pro license, they can still view pro contents as long as they were deployed by someone with a premium license?

Re: Best Practices Using SUMMARIZE and ADDCOLUMNS | SQLBI

Hi @Marco Russo , evaluate, as far as I know, cannot be used in calculated measure or column. How do we use this in Power BI Desktop? Would be great If I could return a table or matrix visual using evaluate.

Re: Power BI Desktop October Feature Summary

enad — Fri, 04 Nov 2016 05:54:49 -0000

Hi,

Thanks for the updates. They are great.

The update seems to have caused a minor problem though. I can't edit a calculated measure. The formula bar won't show up when I click an already exisisting measure unless I create a new one.

Re: How To Trigger Your VBA Macros To Run Based On A Specific Cell Value Change

Thanks for the tutorial.
I would like also to know how to fire a macro when a cell is not within visiblerange, like when you scroll down and then cell A4 becomes out of the view, a userform shows up.
