If you want to set a special cursor type, use the following function:
void AcEdJig::setSpecialCursorType(AcEdJig::CursorType);
The CursorType can be one of the values in the following table.

This step is optional. With the acquirePoint() functions, you can specify this alternate cursor. Setting the cursor type for the acquireDist() and acquireAngle() functions has no effect. The acquireXXX() functions select a cursor for you if you don't explicitly specify one.
