I want to study a solar eclipse as viewed from the Moon and use the shadow outlines projected onto Earth.

Under Options > Solar System > Planets-Moons, I check "Show Earth/Moon shadow outlines" and uncheck "Umbra Cone" and "Penumbra Cone."
However, the umbra cone is still visible, which interferes with my use of the umbra cone outline because it covers the map.

How do I switch off the umbra cone?
