Detailed Description

This example shows how to create a glow around a model node using the SlicerLayerDisplayableManager module.

It goes over the following concepts:
    - Creates a unique display pipeline to set attach a VTK glow pass to a renderer
    - Creates one glow display pipeline per 3D view for each created model nodes in the scene
    - Register the pipeline creation mechanism
    - Handles hover interaction: on mouse move, each pipeline reports whether the cursor is within its model's
        bounding box and its distance to the model center. The closest matching pipeline gains focus and sets an
        "IsSelected" attribute on its data node; losing focus (cursor moved to another model or left the window)
        resets the attribute. The observed attribute change updates the glow actor visibility, so only the
        hovered model glows.

Usage:
    This example is implemented as a scripted module and can be added as such to Slicer.
    Once added, loading new model nodes will set their glow pass automatically.
