Hello All,
I've developed a plugin that will manipulate an Roi, and I'm having
some trouble figuring a good way to install it.  My dilemma is that I
need to have an icon in the toolbar for it, but a macro isn't
sufficient because I need to change the cursor.  I can't change the
cursor because it looks like my macro is only run when I click on the
image.

Is there a way to execute some code when the macro tool is clicked on
the toolbar, before the Image is clicked?  This way I could set up the
code for the cursor before the mouse goes over the image region.

I also would need to get the Tool id of the marco that was installed.
This way I set the cursor only when my tool is running.

Let me know if there is another way of adding a tool to the Toolbar at
startup other then a macro and adding it to the startup macros.

Thanks,
JC Norman
