Turn off Focus Mode?

Is there a way to turn off "Focus mode" in presentations?  I have slicers that the filter, focus mode, and more options become available after selecting something within that slicer. There is no reason for the person viewing the report to select any of these option so was wondering if these options can be hidden somehow.  

 

Thanks

@TheKiltedGolfer Yes you can turn off by going to format pane, and under visual header you can turn on/off options and focus mode is one of it

@parry2k How do I do this now, with the new design of Desktop? I can't find any options anywhere. Thanks in advance.

@Anonymous not sure what you mean, it is on format section under visual header

@parry2k Thanks for responding. I have that turned off already, but was looking to stop focus mode from the ellipsis menu of a dashboard tile. Perhaps it isn't that big a deal - I'm not sure until we release these particular dashboards to users.

I did try that but its still there in my Power BI Desktop visual.  I will try publishing it to see if the option goes away in the published visual.

@TheKiltedGolfer Yes when you are in edit mode (in deskop), it will show but after publish, in reading mode, you will not see these options.

You are correct.  It still shows in edit mode (Desktop) but not after it is published.  Thank You !!
