If you haven't used Tabular Editor 3 before, you are eligible to a 30 day trial, which can be requested after installation. You can also purchase a license.

Improvements in 3.2.1

  • The debugger has been improved in various ways. For example, it is now easier to manage Watch expressions through a right-click context menu. You can also quickly add a measure, a variable reference, or a subexpression to the Watch expression view by right-clicking in the editor. See this article for more information.
  • A new serialization option is available, which ensures that the JSON arrays for roles/perspectives are sorted by name when saved to disk, see #341. Find the new option under Tools > Preferences > File Formats > Sort arrays by name (or to change the setting for an existing model go to Model > Serialization options...).

Bugfixes in 3.2.1

  • The step over (F10) and step in (F11) shortcuts in the DAX debugger now behave more intuitively.
  • Fix crash on model load when TOM Explorer has not yet been initialized, see issue #357.
  • Fixed an issue with workspace layout not being restored correctly on application restart or when switching between layouts.
  • Ensure content of auto-hide panels is loaded when the panel is expanding
  • Semantic analyzer should no longer report an error when the 3rd arg of the SEARCH or FIND functions is omitted.
  • Semantic analyzer should no longer report errors when using the ROLLUPGROUP and ROLLUP DAX functions (sometimes seen in queries generated by PBI Desktop).

Tabular Editor 3.1.6

If you haven't used Tabular Editor 3 before, you are eligible to a 30 day trial, which can be requested after installation. You can also purchase a license.

Improvements in 3.1.6

  • DAX editor improvements:
    • Offline DAX formatting now available. The "Format DAX" buttons and shortcuts (F6) now use the built-in DAX formatter instead of www.daxformatter.com. The built-in formatter has a few more configuration options and also fixes column and measure references that do not follow best practices, and more. Since the built-in formatter does not perform a web request, it is also significantly faster. If you encounter an issue with the built-in formatter, you can disable it by enabling the **Use daxformatter.com instead of built-in formatter" under Tools > Preferences > DAX Editor.
    • You can now configure keywords/functions to be formatted with different casing, based on your preferences. Find the settings under Tools > Preferences > DAX Editor > Auto Formatting, see #58. More details.
    • Added an option for "Debug comma" formatting for DAX queries (puts all commas in front of the line, for easy comment/uncomment of subexpressions), see #96.
    • You can now select an entire object reference (measure, column, etc.) by double-clicking on it (previously, only the word under the cursor would get selected).
    • When a subexpression is selected and an opening brace (parenthesis or curly brace) is entered, the selection is wrapped with a matching closing brace, see #48.
    • Code assist no longer interferes when writing comments.
  • TE3 can now import and update table schemas from Snowflake (Power BI data models only).
  • Updated TOM to 19.27.2.1
  • C# script method SelectObjects is now available, which prompt the user to select one or more objects given a list of objects.
  • New option, Tools > Preferences > TOM Explorer > Show full branch. When this is checked, filtering the TOM Explorer will also show all child objects, even when they do not match the filter string. See #276.
  • New option, Tools > Preferences > TOM Explorer > Always show delete warnings. When this is checked, all delete operations will display a confirmation dialog. When unchecked, only multi-select deletions and deletion of objects referenced by other objects will display the confirmation dialog (remember, every operation can be undone in Tabular Editor). See #10.
  • Added the "Apply Refresh Policy" menu option on tables, when applicable. See Configure Incremental Refresh with Tabular Editor for more information, see also #291.
  • Added the DAX dependency view to the View menu, and added a checkbox that lets the dependency view track the current selection in the TOM Explorer, see#10.

Bugfixes in 3.1.6

  • The Preferences, SelectItems and Save/Edit Macro dialogs can now be resized, see#51.
  • When an "Update table schema" operation is performed against a Power BI Desktop model that uses native queries for data import, we will bring the PBI Desktop instance to the front, as a dialog pops up in Desktop which needs to be accepted, before the "Update table schema" operation can complete, see issue #55.
  • Taskbar icon should no longer break when upgrading. See#163.
  • When updating table schemas, you will now be shown a connection dialog that allows you to change the auth mode. See#262.
  • The MemberId role member property is now removed automatically only when deploying a model to Azure AS or Power BI. See #263.
  • Fixed an issue with freezing UI when queuing multiple refresh operations, see #281.
  • AAD object picker should now produce a well-formed object name. See#286.
  • When executing a DAX script that creates a calculation group, the ordinals are now assigned correctly, see #296.
  • CTRL + arrows can now be used to expand/collapse all nodes in the TOM Explorer, similar to TE 2.x, see #297.
  • When executing a DAX script that creates a calculation group, the column name is now assigned correctly, see #298.
  • Fixed a bug where DAX script locales were not updated correctly when switching between US/Non-US mode.
  • Fixed a crash that would occur when trying to connect to an AS server contains databases with no compatibility level (happens when connecting to an instance of AS tabular that shares its data dir with an instance of AS multidimensional).
  • Fixed a bug that would sometimes cause the "Update table schema" feature to report all columns as missing from the source.
  • Fixed an issue with the Table Preview feature, that would cause grid columns to be configured incorrectly, when using impersonation.
  • Fixed an issue with semantic change notification bar not disappearing when saving the model.
  • Fixed an issue with property grid edits not being committed automatically when saving the model.

Tabular Editor 3.1.3

If you haven't used Tabular Editor 3 before, you are eligible to a 30 day trial, which can be requested after installation. You can also purchase a license.

Bugfixes in 3.1.3

  • Fixed a memory leak that occurs when the application is idle. This issue has existed since v. 3.1.1.

Bugfixes in 3.1.2

  • Fixed an issue with Update Table Schema not working for SQL DW / Synapse SQL Pool data sources, see #231.
  • Fixed an issue where ignored rules were still considered by the Best Practice Analyzer, see #203.
  • Fixed an issue where models could not be saved to disk (file or folder) due to a JSON serialization error, see #232.
  • Fixed an issue that caused a crash when inspecting the property values of a Structured Data Source.

Improvements in 3.1.1

  • Shared Expressions (Power Query / M expressions) can now be serialized as individual files. You can control the serialization under Tools > Preferences > Save-to-folder or for an existing model under Model > Serialization options... (#218)
  • New options for controlling how perspective memberships are applied to new objects under Tools > Preferences > Modeling Operations (see issue #216).
  • PrivacySetting property can now be excluded from serialization, to prevent issues with Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Deployment. This is controlled under Model > Serialization options... (see issue #210).
  • You can now define enums, structs and classes directly within a C# script, making it easier to structure and reuse C# code.
  • VertiPaq Analyzer now has an option to collect statistics from data (Tools > Preferences > VertiPaq Analyzer), improving the quality of the statistics, for example when columns have IsAvailableInMDX = false. See issue #190.
  • When a new model is created, Tabular Editor 3 now prompts if the model should be saved as a file or folder, the first time it is saved. You can also set the default mode under Tools > Preferences > General > Default save format for new models. See issue #50.
  • Improved startup performance (some users have reported additional startup time gains by adding the -multicorejit switch to the TabularEditor3.exe shortcut).
  • Restructured the "Model" menu to make options such as "New calculation group" readily available.
  • Updated AMO/TOM client libraries to 19.26.1.7.
  • Model Role Members can now be iterated individually in the Best Practice Analyzer
  • "Workspace" within the "Window" menu has been renamed to "Layout" to avoid confusion with Workspace Mode.
  • Added Ctrl+Shift+D as a shortcut for "Deploy"
  • Support for new DAX functions (HASH, NAMEOF, COLUMNSTATISTICS, BITAND, BITLSHIFT, BITOR, BITRSHIFT, BITXOR) and support for optional column name parameter in SELECTCOLUMNS.

Bugfixes in 3.1.1

  • TOM Explorer should no longer freeze or crash when deleting objects (see issues #223, #209).
  • Fixed a color issue with dark themes in editors (#207) and icons (#215)
  • Tables are now sorted alphabetically in the "Create/Edit Relationship" dialog (see issue #214
  • Fixed an issue with C# scripts that prevented saving them as macros (see issue #208).
  • Fixed an issue with data source passwords/credentials not being properly applied to workspace database (see issue #205).
  • "Select all columns" checkbox should no longer cause a crash (see issue #204).
  • Tabular Editor now always looks in the installation directory when a script references external DLL's (using the #r precompiler directive), see issue #192.
  • Fixed a bug with linguistic schema that caused Q&A to stop working some cases
  • Filtering on a date column in Data Preview should no longer cause a crash
  • When selecting all perspectives in the TOM Explorer perspectives-dropdown, objects that do not included in any perspectives are no longer shown. Also fixed an issue with the dropdown box not updating perspective names.
  • Allow using certain DAX keywords as variables (WEEK, DAY, INTEGER, etc.) without showing an error.
  • Fix issue with serialization options not being stored the first time a model is saved.
  • Fixed an issue with the DAX parser which would cause a crash upon loading a model (see #229).
