Hi
I love IntelliSense (autocomplete) in any language, however I am finding the DAX version causes more time wasted removing ABS() and other functions that I hadn't typed.
I would expect ABS() as an example to appear when you type A and the selection to continue to reduce the more you type, however, the frustrating thing with the version for DAX suggests a list the moment you enter the filter argument of CALCULATE(). I am not sure how many other functions this affects.

RE: DAX IntelliSense - stop auto suggestion without typing
Would love to see this improvement, that AutoComplete only triggers when you begin typing characters. If your attempting to 'well format' your DAX code. AutoComplete is automatically triggered when you hit enter, and then if you hit 'tab' to indent your code, you've just inserted 'ABS()' or 'AddColumns' or pick your first "A*" function that's accessible. Then you have to remove it and and cancel out of the autocomplete suggestion before hitting tab. Adds multiple unnecessary keystrokes for each new lineThis also impacts the new Dax Query view, equally frustrating. Been dealing with this for a while, finally went looking for an opportunity to improve this 'feature'
