Frequently we reference DAX measures in other measures. While the number of measures increases in the model, it gets harder to remember every measure definition. We found ourselves going back and forward to see if we referenced the correct measure. So, it would be nice if, while creating a new measure that uses an existing one, we could see that measure's code when hovering the mouse without having to quit the editor to check it.

As a workaroud for this inconvenience, in DAX Studio you can right click on a measure and select "Define Dependent Measures". It will show the code for all measures that the selected measure depends on.
