Lightroom's histogram triangles missing

Hello all,
I've been reading this message board without posting anything for a while and have come up with what is really nothing more than an annoyance. The triangles that light up in the histogram box in LR when a photo has either clipped or blown areas are missing. I can determine if there are blown out areas in the photo by hitting the 'J' key, but liked having the triangles to send me that message as well.
I'm wondering if there is a setting in preferences or something that I tweaked by mistake that eliminated them.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks

You have to click them to activate them. If there are blown areas...they'll show up.

I would like to simply click on them, but even on a photo that has blown areas there are no triangles to be seen.

right click the histogram and choose "show clipping indicators"

They are only active in the Develop module, not the Library module.

Thanks a lot. That worked. I'm not sure how or why I turned them off!
