Visual Borders Automatically Show on Hover in Power BI Service
The visual borders that show on hover in Power BI Desktop used to not show on hover once the report is published to the service. This is not the case anymore, hovering over any visual in Power BI Service will show the thin grey border around it. Has there been a change recently that allows users to toggle this on and off? Anyone know how to hide the automatic visual borders again?
The borders when in view mode are a known issue and the fix should start rolling out on Monday. If you still see the issue late next week, please let us know!
Update (Sep 20th): Fix was deployed to some regions last night. The remaining regions should be deployed by EOD today (Sep 20th).
Update (Nov 11th): We're aware of a similar issue where borders some focus borders are are unexpectedly appearing on visuals. The fix is currently being tested and will be rolled out soon. No ETA is available yet, but I'll provide an update as soon as I get one.

Is there an ETA for this problem to get fixed? It is very annoying. We have some demos lined up and with this we cant go for the demo
We also started to see this week dark blue outlines appearing in Power BI Service. It's happening aroung pages / or randomly around slicer / or also around objects which were grouped together in selection pane (eg. when having grouped more objecst as text field, image, shape).
Thanks for any info regarding this.
We still see the issue. Do you know when the fix will be rolled out?
Not seeing this. I am using Edge and have no addins that would impact this. What browser are you using? Try Edge and see if that fixes it. It would be an anomaly with a different browser. This is from a report I just published using the Sept 2022 desktop.
Thanks for your reply. I am using Edge and the report below was published using the Sept 2022 Power BI Desktop.
Interesting. I am checking on this. I am hoping there is some easy to fix setting I am just not remembering.
Same thing is happening with my dashboards as of today.... and I am using Edge as well...
I'm having the same issue in both Chrome and Edge as of today, 09/15/22. A border shows up on anything I hover over (icon, text box, visual, page navigator, etc.). Did their September release that just came out somehow create this issue?? Hope it is resolved soon!
I'm having the same grey visual border issue as well when i hover my mouse over textbox, images, shapes, etc... Please help...! it happened all of a sudden when i was checking my Power BI dashboard today. It wasn't like this in the past.
I have the same problem. I've some dashboard presentations that I developed and will have to be rescheduled because of that. This problem spoils our entire template.
Just came across this and having the same issue.
Still happening as of today
