Auto-complete and Function picker for MDX in PAW/PAfE set editor

MDX in the set editor could be greatly enhanced by having auto-complete and a function picker like rules and TI.

Edit 2022-06-29: Ideally possible parameters to be shown as well as information just like TI does in PAW 2.0.77. Functionality should be available in both the Set editor and Cube viewer when viewing or amending MDX.


Currently you need to reference other sources for MDX syntax, supported functions etc.


Messaging could also be greatly enhanced.

The standard and only response in Invalid MDX expression.


Architect/Perspectives was at least a bit better hinting at where the issue may lie, even if not always accurate, was better than what is now available.

    Set to future consideration. We will consider this enhancement after the release of the new editor in Q4 2021/Q1 2022.
