Change mouse pointer on hover over [message #949928]

I would like to be able to change the mouse cursor to a cross-hairs whenever it is hovering over something that can start a connection (e.g. an anchor). I know there is a getSelectionInfoForShape that is called on hovering over a certain shape, so i could call the CreateConnectionFeature.canStartConnection() on that in order to change the cursor, but how can i tell when it is no longer hovering over that shape?

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Jonathan,

this is currently not possible using Graphiti API. Technically one would
need a MouseMotiionListener registered on the involved Figures.

If you would like to see that possibility in a future version of Graphiti,
please open an enhancement bugzilla for this feature.
