How to stop Pink area covering selection

This might not be a bug, but it's a big distracting nuisance to me.

 

Whenever I select anything in the newest Photoshop, the selection area in addition to the border line, gets covered by a pnk area.  See the attached photo.  If I move the mouse, the pink follows the area.   I realize it probably serves a purpose, but it gets in the way of whatever I'm doing. 

 

Is there a way to get rid of it or make it transparent?

@Birdwoman you're using the Object Selection tool, you can change the settings from the options bar

Thank you!  I just started using the AI Photoshop version, and I didn't notice that toolbar option.  I had looked thru the Settings menus.

Since the s-shot was just to show what my words were referring to, it hadn't occurred to me to include the toolbar, etc.

No problem; sometimes those Panels can provide meaningful clues about issues.
