How to use the Selection Reticle in CesiumJS

In any of the Cesium sandcastle examples with entities, clicking an entity shows a green square reticle type thing.

My question is, what is it? I want to implement something that behaves similarly but can't find anything about it in the code base or the documentation.

Note: I have disabled the selection widget in my application.

You can see the reticle thing I am talking about in the attached photo.

You mention:

Note: I have disabled the selection widget in my application.

I'm guessing you have a typo or something, because that green reticle is indeed the SelectionIndicator. It can be disabled by setting a constructor option on the Cesium.Viewer, namely:

var viewer = new Cesium.Viewer('cesiumContainer', {
    selectionIndicator: false
});

Check your code to see if you really set this option correctly in the constructor.

After the viewer is constructed, it's a bit late to try to turn it off, since it binds into events generated by viewer.selectedEntity changing values. By default, the selectedEntity gets the SelectionIndicator unless the viewer was constructed without one.
