What is typically done is to turn tracking events on for the
draw widget. Then, when the cursor enters the draw widget,
switch the cursor with DEVICE, CURSOR_STANDARD=???. When
the cursor leaves the draw widget, set it back with DEVICE,
/STANDARD_CURSOR. (This is in direct graphics. Object
graphics is even easier.)

Cheers,

David
