Power BI Desktop (64 bit) is losing the layout of the model if you save a file without altering the pre-existing model.
To recreate:
1. Open an existing .pbix file containing a model you have laid out nicely.
2. Go to modelling tab and observe correct layout.
3. Press Save.
4. Close Power BI Desktop.
5. Re-open same .pbix file
6. Go back to modelling tab, and the layout has been completely messed up and 'auto-arranged'.
I've found a work-around:
If you make sure you change the layout - even slightly - say, move a table a couple of pixels, and then save - your new layout persists. It only happens if you don't change the model!
Our model is Imported, using a custom connector.
I've had this problem in Feb and March releases, and is still present in the latest (April?) release:
2.68.5432.661
This is a critical bug, as we need to distribute the models to our clients, and we don't want to have to tell them to wiggle a table in the model before saving any new reports they've added!
