[vtkusers] Change properties of axis titles for a vtkCubeAxesRepresentation

[Sébastien PULVERAIL]

Ok, thank you for your help.. But I didn't express correctly..

The people I work for make their own software based on the Paraview's
plugins.. They use vtkCubeAxesRepresentation and vtkCubeAxisActor to make
their cube axes.

They have a little bug when updating the color of the axis title: they can
correctly instantiate a new cube axes (as in the example you gave me), but
when they want to change the color of an axis directly from the GUI: the
axis itself, the labels change color, but not the title.

So, it is not during the initialization that I have a problem, but when I
want to change the color inside the GUI.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Seb
