Hi,
Today I ran into something strange in Power BI Desktop.
Whenever I create a measure:
[some name] := 1
and I click on a random place (so the edit bar closes) and then click on my measure again, I see the code has changed to
some name = 1
Why does this happen, and how can I stop this from happening?
Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
>>However, I have the book "The Definitive Guide to DAX" where they explicitly tell to use ":=" for measures.
I think this may related the OS locale language.
For example: some device allow use ":=" as the formula header and ";" as the separator, the other devices use "=" as header and "," as the separator.

Thanks, seems logical to me.
However, I have the book "The Definitive Guide to DAX" where they explicitly tell to use ":=" for measures.
Is there any other reference that you know of where I can find the Power BI specifics for DAX?
