I'd like to be able to move/rearrange my Calculated Columns in the Data View so they can be placed next to columns where they would be more relevant and make more sense.


It would be nice also if the Calculated Columns are shaded darker as in PowerPivot so we can easily distinguish them.


Also please enable Ctrl+A (Select ALL) in the Data View - currently it works only in the Query Editor.


This way we could Select ALL Data in the Data View where it would include the Calculated Columns.

RE: Moving/Rearranging Calculated Columns

This is a must have... How has it not been incorporated yet?

A must have! Sometimes I want to see all the data... without a visual... and proximity makes a huge difference in speed of comprehension.

(And please apply to all columns in Data View)

RE: Moving/Rearranging Calculated Columns

Why has this still not been done?? Seems like an obvious and easy functionality to implement.

RE: Moving/Rearranging Calculated Columns

I'd like to be able to move / rearrange all of the data model's columns in "Data" view. No reason to limit this to calculated columns.

RE: Moving/Rearranging Calculated Columns

It´s important because sometimes the user wants to copy the data in the processed table in Power BI to a spreadsheet, and need to be in a specific order of columns.
