How To Configure Rotating Red Dots

Asked by Alfe

The one color I'd like to configure seems to be unconfigurable. If I click on a planet, say, Venus, it gets selected and has four red small lines ("dots") rotating around it until something else gets selected. The color of these dots is too bright for my taste; I'd like to configure it to a darker color.

I tried all RGB values in the config file (using an sed script), none had any influence on these dots.

Is there any way to configure the color or otherwise appearance of these dots?
