Remarks

The SnapTipSymbol defines the textsymbol that is used to display information provided in the snap result’s description after a valid snap location was found.  If ISnappingEnvironment.SnapTipType = 0 (no snap tip) this setting had no effect.


You have a number of options to customize the tip symbol, including advanced text capabilities provided by IFormattedTextSymbol to provide options for backgrounds, offsets, or right-to-left text capabilities. 
The location of the tip is not customizable; the application will display the snap tip above and to the right of the snap location, unless at the extreme top or right bounds of the display.
SnapTipSymbol is an application-level setting.
