Provides a set of icons that represent the possible options available to define the behavior of the geometric entity you selected.

Access:

With the Grip Snap command active, the move option icons are displayed when you select the geometry you want to use as the basis of a move or rotation.

The Back icon is always included so that you can back out of your selections and deselect the geometry while keeping the command active.
