Purple rings with the rotate and offset tool in VAB/SPH, What mod is doing this? Or gfx settings?

I'd have posted in bug reports, but this is more of a 'whats going on here??' rather than a bug report.

I've just noticed that for some reason, the circle bits for the rotate and offset functions have purple rings with them, is one of my mods doing this? I've also decreased graphics settings a little in an attempt to alleviate the memory leak problems, so maybe it's because of graphics settings?

Looks like you are just running in OpenGL. It is a problem with OpenGL rendering, being not supported and all. Don't worry about it though, it won't cause other problems than just being very gaudy.

I am using -force-opengl in the steam launch options to reduce the memory usage and help alleviate the memory leak, so yeah that would be it.

Okay then.

What do you mean by "not supported and all." It's the rendering engine for OSX and Linux version of KSP.

The purple ring is most likely a mod, but I don't know which one.

[RainDreamer]

[...]OpenGL is not officially supported as a rendering option by KSP.

It works, just that they don't provide official support.

I got the same ring with openGL, but none with Dx11, so I assume it is an openGL thing.

The purple thing is a standard "transparency" color in DirectX, I think. OpenGL might not recognize it as such, in those specific circumstances.
