    Anyone who uses PowerBI long enough has had a PBIX with 50-60 measures and it has become time consuming and tedious to mantain. In Excel you can do a quick find/replace to edit several formulas - in PowerBI you need to select each one individually. An "excel-like" interface for editing measures would save a lot of time! This would take PowerBI to the next level regarding productivity. I've prepared a mockup for this as well as a DAX Editor. Let me know what you think.

    Is it possible to create variables to control instances where you might have to change many different formulas?

    Voted.
    Meanwhile you may have a look at Power BI Sidetools : https://thebipower.fr/index.php/power-bi-sidetools/
    It copies measures and calculated columns/tables to files and opens Visual Studio Code. At the moment it is read only but write access is in test.

    As well as integrating it with VS Code to improve the user experience.
