Text not appearing in formula when creating a measure/calculated column

Hello,

 

I've noticed a bug sometimes when I'm typing in the formula bar for a measure or calculated column. Sometimes when I begin to type my formula the text won't automatically appear with suggestions. I have to close Power BI desktop and reopen it. I've only noticed this after the most recent Power BI destop update. They supposedly made some changes to the DAX Editor to fix some bugs.

Status: Investigating

Hi @nleuck_101,

 

Unfortunately, I couldn’t reproduce this issue. May I know whether this issue takes place in the latest version of Power BI Desktop? If you try with the latest one, will you see this issue either? Did this issue happen when you input specific dax function or and random function?

I have Version 2.108.603.0 64-bit (August 2022). It doesn't happen all the time but since the update it has happened twice. I'm not sure if it's a specific DAX function it seems to be random. The two times it has happened it was working fine at the beginning then it would randomly stop working. I would have to save my file close Power BI desktop and reopen it again.

It just happened again. I've been using Power BI desktop since 9:00am EST and around 1:00pm EST I tried to create a Measure and as soon as I try to type CALCULATE nothing appears for auto text. It hasn't been consistent but it still happens from time to time.
