Feature Request: Clean Screenshot Mode for Charts and Dashboards

I'd like to propose a feature that would enhance Metabase's sharing capabilities: a "presentation mode" or "clean screenshot mode" for charts and dashboards that temporarily removes UI elements not directly related to the data visualization.

Current Situation: As Metabase becomes increasingly popular for data visualization and sharing, many users (myself included) frequently need to share screenshots of our charts and dashboards in presentations, reports, and social media. While Metabase's UI is excellent for interaction, these UI elements can be distracting when sharing static images.

Proposed Solution: A toggle or mode that would:

  • Hide navigation elements
  • Remove filter UI components
  • Hide additional menu options
  • Maintain only the essential elements: chart title, legend, axes, and the visualization itself

Use Cases:

  • Creating professional presentations
  • Sharing insights on social media
  • Including visualizations in reports
  • Creating documentation

All right, created my first ever feature request on Github!
