When you type in a DAX formula, you have the option to select the green checkmark to confirm that your expression is acceptable or needs to be fixed. If there is an error, a yellow line appears below the expression that explains the problem. This is great. However, particularly for those new to Power BI, it is a but unsettling to get no feedback when you do not have an error. Some folks assume that they don't have an error as intended, but others think they might not have hit the checkmark, or that the check didn't work or that their computer is still working on it and other reasons for thinking that it is not done. This request is for some type of feedback that all is well - perhaps leave the green check highlighted green? Or a little green line that says "no errors found"? Either way, some sort of feedback that the check ran and didn't find anything would be great to have.
