  Incident Diagnosis
  Snap to point icon is not displayed correctly.
  .
  Correction Explanation
  In sceanrio. as command (snap to point) of drafting
  is created first, it takes the resources defined by
  drafting. Sketcher also has a command for snap to
  point which, has the same name. So application
  frame set same resources. This is done for
  increasing the performance. But drafting command
  does not declare icon in a specific resource file. So
  no icon declared for the command and so no icon is
  displayed in sketcher.
  .
  Now the problem is corrected. Correct resource file
  is now pointed.
  .
  Answer and By-Pass
  None
  .
