Section/elevation markers distance areas are grey

Hello all,
Fairly new user here. Just switched to AC11 from AC10 and Autocad, and when I use the section/elevation tools, the distance area is covered in a grey fill. I have looked at every setting I can find and cant turn it off. Its very annoying and would like to turn it off. Any ideas? Not only me, but another user in the office is having the same problem. Any suggestions out there?

This is a new On-Screen Display Setting for Source Markers. Goto View > On-Screen Display Options > Highlight Source Markers to turn off.

Laura,
Thanks for the reply, however, I dont have the source markers option in the "On-Screen Display option". Ive turned every option there on and off, and it doesnt change. Is there another option somewhere?
Thanks again.

Check your Work Environment -- are you using the same WE as you did in AC10? Perhaps it is not including the New Features in the menus??? Try loading the default AC11 WE -- this option should be available!

Laura,
Thanks for your input. Finally found it. Just needed to add the command to my toolbars.
