RE: remove frames when hover over it
Please remove the frames, doesn’t make sense.
RE: remove frames when hover over it
very anoying, especially with small objects. I have a vertikal list of parameter text input fields but i cannot place them directly under each other, because the frame overlaps with the input field above it.
would be nice to be able to turn off object selection, also focus mode is totally unnecessary for certain objects, such as a parameter input field.

Necessary improvement!
I hope PowerBI team realizes this is not a 'nice-to-have' rather a must-have.
Not only do the unnecessary boxes affect aesthetics, to a user they are distracting -and even annoying. Eg dense reports that combine slicers close together, jump all over the place.
Widespread adoption (and appreciation) of visualisation tools within an organisation strongly relies on an intuitive interface. Personally I'd also be more proud of my work in PowerBI if it would present more sleek and truly like a professional app.

Agree with comments, should be configurable on each element with :
-disabled by default for textbox, filters, images, etc.
-enabled y default for any data element (for backward compatibility)

It could work as in reports that are published to web which completely changes the overall feel to the report.
Example:

Unfortunately publishing to web is hardly and option in enterprise environments due to security concerns as the reports are available to anyone with access to the link. Please fix this for both web and the Win10 app!

What they said .... very annoying and detracts from presentation desktop or embedded (especially embedded)
RE: remove frames when hover over it
I completely agree that this is a feature in desperate need of attention. In the meantime, I have come up with an approach that somewhat reduces the impact, especially if you are able to consolidate visual items that users don't need to interact with in a single area of your dashboard. We have created a single UI item with no background fill, stretched it over the items which should not have borders, and then sent those items to the back. This creates only 1 visual item which displays a border. Not perfect, but MUCH cleaner!
