Provide option to remove the focus mode border. This has the effect of messing up the experience of the report in most cases. If I want to allow focus mode on a detailed chart, then I can enable it. But in most cases it is extra UI baggage

We provided the ability to turn off the visual header box in the March 2018 release! This will hide the focus mode icon across your visuals. https://powerbi.microsoft.com/es-es/blog/power-bi-desktop-march-2018-feature-summary/#visualHeader

RE: Optionally remove focus mode box

This is very necessary.

Almost all my reports have dropdown slicers that overlap each other and make it difficult to select.

The only option it to space them very far apart and leave less space to display metrics/ results.

Please fix, we have feedback that users have stopped using PowerBI because it's too difficult to use.

Please prioritize this idea. It has been over a year. Many of my reports got bad feedback due to this annoying box.

RE: Optionally remove focus mode box

Last update was almost a year ago? Are we any closer to getting rid of (or disabling) this disruptive layout on slicers and text boxes?

It can really make a report look tacky...

RE: Optionally remove focus mode box

When we use many slicers and when we do mouse moves over to do filter on, an additional icon appears. This appears to be redundant and no value. It causing major issues when a report has multiple slicers close together. Can we have any fix yet to disable focus mode/more option (...) ?
