Hi Weiguang, 

have you tried the cvs version?  The script below
works for me...

Hi,

I find that vtkSphereWidget::GetPolyData can NOT get up-to-date polydata
after InteractionEvent or EndInteraction events are invoked. This is true 
at least for 4.4. Not sure whether nightly update has got rid of the 
problem or not.
