In Adobe Camera Raw, clipped shadows are showing in blue and clipped highlights in red over my image. How can I hide or disable these warning overlays?

In Camera RAW 7.0 you can just click on the little arrows on the top right or top left of the histogram display. The one on the left turns on/off the shadow indicator(blues), the one on the right turns on/off the highlight indicator(reds).
Alternatively you can use the keyboard "O" to toggle the highlight warning, and "U" to toggle the shadow warning.

In Adobe Camera Raw, those red and blue overlays are the clipping warnings.
To turn them off:
- Click the small triangles/arrows at the top corners of the histogram.
- Left triangle: shadow clipping warning (blue)
- Right triangle: highlight clipping warning (red)
- You can also use keyboard shortcuts:
Utoggles the shadow warningOtoggles the highlight warning
If you want, you can disable either one individually or both together.
