DAX syntactic sugar to increase the DAX language expressivity
It took me days to finally figure out how to implement a simple algo in DAX that would have taken me less than 5 minutes to do in C or Python! This is utterly ridiculous! So the idea is this: Redesign the DAX syntax to make it more expressive. Note I didn't write redesign the grammar. But yo...
Report Builder for creating paginated reports
Microsoft, please listen good because I about had it with your subpar UI/UX design as far as Power BI Report Builder is concerned. The UI is so unintuitive that just to create 2 date filters--a from-date and a to-date--the equivalent of a Date Range slicer in Power BI in order to filter the date...
Enabled Between option for slicers used with Time data, not just Date data
In other words, when you drop a Date field into the slicer data well in the Build visual pane, and then select Between in the slicer options, a slider appears that lets you play with a range of dates.
Please make this option also functional when using a Time field instead of...
Enable slicing by Time across multiple days.
In other words, have the slicer visual accept time information so that a user could slice data from, 2022-03-25 15:10:00 to 2022-03-30 06:35:00, for ex.

Keep source column names when ingesting into a lakehouse
Hi Fabric Team,
could you please make it so that all source column names are not lost when using a Dataflow Gen 2 to ingest from a SQL Server view into a new lakehouse? Further, I was expecting Power Query in dataflow to behave the same way as in Power BI Desktop, that is, re...
Enable copy/paste of dynamic content between text fields
Allow copy/paste from a Teams activity Message field to another Teams activity Message field, which would speed up the creation of such messages, especially when the dynamic content is supposed to be the same.
The context here is that there are multiple dataflows for which w...
Persist user defined layout of the activities after saving pipeline--do not auto rearrange the activities layout upon reopening pipeline
Issue: rearrange your activities just the way you like it, save the pipeline, reopen the pipeline and all activities are rearranged to some default layout not matching your previous arrangement.
