Reporting

Visual calculations update (preview)

MS have developed visual calculation support for scatter plots and maps 

The profit visual calculation (which substracts sales amount and total product cost per country) is used to determine bubble size for the countries shown on the map.

Modeling

Download large semantic models

MS have announced users can now download large semantic models to Power BI Desktop as a .pbix file. Previously you could only edit reports connected to these models in live connected report mode. Now you can open and edit your reports and the large model itself as a .pbix file all within Desktop.

New INFO functions

New INFO functions are available in June 2024. All the INFO functions are DAX function versions of existing Analysis Services Dynamic Management Views (DMVs), so that documentation is provided here for additional information.

June 2024 has introduced further support on visual calculations and the ability to download large semantic models. To learn more about Power BI updates in June 2024, view the full MS summary.
