A new Data Days event is coming soon! This time we’re going bigger than ever. Fabric, Power BI, SQL, AI and more. Don't miss out.

Make profile photo ring optional due to impact on Power BI visuals.

Please add an option to disable or remove the automatically applied ring around profile photos across Microsoft 365.

This visual treatment has a direct negative impact on Power BI reports that use profile photos in visuals (tables, matrices, org-style layouts, and custom visuals). Clean, edge‑to‑edge images are often required for professional dashboard design, and the forced ring introduces unwanted visual noise that cannot be controlled or styled within Power BI.

Because profile photos are reused as a shared asset across Microsoft 365, this behavior limits design flexibility in Power BI and degrades the overall quality of people‑centric reporting.

A user‑level or tenant‑level toggle to disable the ring would allow Power BI authors to maintain clean, consistent visuals without affecting other scenarios.
