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
- Debugger now supports DAX queries that use the ROLLUPGROUP function.
- Fixed a bug with inverse filter being sent to the DAX debugger when starting from a Pivot Grid with a filter on a column containing two unique values.
- General DAX debugger stability improvements, see [#369]((#369).
- 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).
- Various offline DAX formatter improvements, to make the offline formatter more consistent with https://daxformatter.com.
- Fix issue with comment frames being added to the previous expression in a DAX script, see #331.
- Fix application crash at launch, issue #328.
- Allow setting translated properties of multiple objects at once, see issue #359.
