    It would nice to have the option to duplicate an existing measure (include formatting) and copy/paste the format of a measure (like Format Painter).

    Definitely a time saver to be able to copy new measures/new columns across and then modify for the destination table

    RE: Duplicate Measure and Format Copy

    We are creating multiple reports/dashboard. This is a necessary functionality, and it would save us lots of time as currently I have to spend hours to copy the measures for each report..

    RE: Duplicate Measure and Format Copy

    Good afternoon, That should be something like a quick win. I just basically need to copy measure from Notepad. It't not bad, but would be great if I could copy paste. Would somewhat speed up the flow.
