Anyone who uses PowerBI long enough has had a PBIX with 50-60 measures and it has become time consuming and tedious to mantain. In Excel you can do a quick find/replace to edit several formulas - in PowerBI you need to select each one individually. An "excel-like" interface for editing measures would save a lot of time! This would take PowerBI to the next level regarding productivity. I've prepared a mockup for this as well as a DAX Editor. Let me know what you think.

RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
please add "Manage Measures Dialogue" it is very necessary to manage visuals data effectively.

RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
There's a trick you can use to do measure groups:

However would be better if there was a button to create these as this is a very well hidden feature.

RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
This is very important and what will take PowerBI to the next level regarding productivity. Today most people who use PowerBI daily have a PBIX with 50+ measures and it becomes very challenging to mantain. AT MINIMUM, adding a GUI with a table of listing each measure would be SUPER HELPFUL!

RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
Yes - Manage Measures UI is an critical feature in PowerPivot - should be in PowerBI as well.
RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
I came to the forum to suggest Clone a measure but filtering on measure I see a ton of minor improvements that together could be rolled into this one - create a measure management UI. I only wish I could vote 50 times :-)
