[vtkusers] Change mouse cursor while hovering on vtkSphereWidget

[Cory Quammen]

I think you will have to subclass vtkSphereWidget2 and override the
SetCursor() method. The SetCursor() method for vtkHandleWidget is

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
void vtkHandleWidget::SetCursor(int cState)
{
  if ( this->ManagesCursor )
    {
    switch (cState)
      {
      case vtkHandleRepresentation::Outside:
        this->RequestCursorShape(VTK_CURSOR_DEFAULT);
        break;
      default:
        this->RequestCursorShape(VTK_CURSOR_HAND);
      }
    }
}

I imagine you would want the same in your subclass.

HTH,
Cory
