Hi all.  
In my VTK 3D scene, I am using a vtkOrientationMarkerWidget which in turn uses a vtkAnnotatedCubeActor as the widget’s vtkProp.

I have an apparently-trivial question: how to customize the colors of this cube’s faces?

I am easily able to customize the texts appearing on each cube’s face, but I could not find an easy way to customize faces colors.

Any hint?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Marco Sambin
