1. Create an empty cursor with gdk_cursor_new_from_pixmap()
and set it for the widget with
gdk_window_set_cursor(widget->window, empty_cursor).

2. Connect to "motion-notify-event", "button-press-event", or
"button-release-event" signal of the widget and use
event->x, event->y of the event passed to the signal handler
(if I understand wht you want).
