Tabular Editor 3.0.6

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.

NOTE: If you previously installed one of the BETA builds, you will have to manually uninstall that before installing this new version.

Known issues

  • Table Import Wizard didn't make it to this release due to some high-priority bugs that had to be fixed. It will be available ASAP! As a work around, simply create a new table and specify the partition query (SQL or M). Then, right-click the table and choose "Update Table Schema..." to import columns.
  • See roadmap for more information.

Improvements in 3.0.6:

  • Support for consultancy licenses. More details.
  • DAX queries now display row counts and timings (see issue #10)
  • DAX queries are now limited to 1000 rows by default, to prevent timeouts/memory issues. This limit can be changed in Tools > Preferences > Data Browsing > DAX Query.
  • Columns in the DAX query results can now be sorted and filtered (local sorting/filtering only). See issue #60
  • Data from grids (DAX query results, Table Preview, etc.) can now be copied to the clipboard
  • When copying a DAX expression the syntax highlighting is now preserved on the clipboard. See issue #80.
  • When adding a calculated table through a C# script expression, the semantic analyzer now immediately adds the calculated table columns to the table based on the DAX expression (instead of after script execution).
  • Updated TOM client library to v. 19.22.0.1
  • Portable versions (.zip) now available. Remember that you have to manually register Tabular Editor 3 with Power BI Desktop if using the portable version.

Bugfixes in 3.0.6:

  • Can now use the EvaluateDax, ExecuteCommand, SelectTable, SelectMeasure etc. methods in C# scripts (similar to Tabular Editor 2.x), see #44.
  • The CustomAction C# script method now works properly, see #79.
  • Better reestablishing of connections to AS (should see fewer "connection lost" crashes)
  • Best Practice Analyzer can now be instantiated through a C# script: new TabularEditor.Shared.BPA.Analyzer(); - this is different than in Tabular Editor 2.x in which the Analyzer class resided in a different namespace. See issue #45
  • Copy operations are now supported when folders are selected, see #84
  • Improved filtering of date columns in the Table Preview, see #77
  • Fixed a bug where semantic engine feature overrides were not in effect, see #62.
