RE:

It would be highly beneficial if we could incorporate tables into our marketing emails in a user-friendly manner, guaranteeing that the table displays correctly on both android and IOS devices. Currently, we can copy and paste a table from an excel spreadsheet into a marketing email, but this does not render properly on IOS devices, even when the table has been embedded using HTML.

RE:

Just another example of appalling design decisions by Microsoft. That they can continue to ship products that can instantly delete your work (you clicked an error value in a column? hope you didn't need all those subsequent steps!), and rip off customers for the pleasure, just shows how bad the product team are at their jobs. Maybe don't make an IDE where you cannot save anything until all code is running perfectly?This needs to be made available in both Gen1 and Gen2 dataflows

RE:

Agreed, I have a report that combines data from the ERP and CRM, and I rely on bookmarks for tailored slicer panes and button behavior for each page. This limit forces me to limit the number of pages and split the report into several files.

RE:

Very necessary for the scenarios where we need to move steps around, and risk breaking references that are hard to debug in an already very-hard-to-debug language. Since order of operations is intrinsic to power query, relativising references would make it far easier to work with code rather than the restrictive GUI.Would be good to be able to traverse multiple steps backwards in cases where the step before is not the table you intend to operate on, but retrieves some value you need, e.g.:let Step1 = loadData(...), Step2 = ([params...]) => [function definition], Step3 = Table.AddColumn(# - 1, "NewColumn1", each Step2([params...]))in Step3

RE:

Have you tried using the Advanced Query View?It allows you to see the entire code of the transformations you've made. If you copy all the code from there, go to a new query, open its Advanced Query Editor, and paste the code, it will apply all the steps automatically to the new query!Here's a link to Microsoft's documentation that explains more about it: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/desktop-query-overview#advanced-editor

RE:

Yeah, this would be so much nicer. Maybe have a flag in the UI to only show fields used in relationships, so that you can actually see them. Then have the lines going to the fields themselves, or be annotated at each end with the field name.

RE:

This is already present in the underlying data model, and editable from tabular editor. Surfacing it in the PowerBI field selector UI would be awesome.

RE:

The new concept of Perspectives really would help here. Let's hope that matures properly and actually becomes useful.

RE:

This is already in the underlying data model, and you can edit it in tabular editor; however it is not shown in the field selector/data model in power BI. Adding as a tooltip it would be awesome.
