Can Revit just show a detail bubble without the callout boundary and possible to display with/without a leader? All I need is a Detail Bubble.

As an individual setting, I don't think so.

If you want this globally, you could change the callout boundary and/or callout leader line to white in the object settings.

Otherwise, context of how you are using it would help people make suggestions.

Rob-

We've always just dragged the plan callout tight to the detail bubble, making it so small that it will not be detected on a plot. A similar process works for detail callouts or sections, except that we turn the tail off and drag the leader tight to the bubble. It is a silly workaround, but has worked fairly well for us. See attached.

Too bad Kathy's suggestion doesn't work on a callout by callout basis....that would have been easier yet.

If the callout will be referencing another view, I would just use a section, turn off the tail, and drag the section line so it's right under the section head. I did this recently when I wanted to show an elevation detail drafting view from a section detail drafting view.
