    INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS: With specific User Settings files,
    Translation or Rotation icon (which was inserted in Move
    Toolbar by Administrator) disappears after restarting CATIA
    in User mode.
    .
    CORRECT APPLICATION:
    The scenario is reproducible only when there are CATSetting
    files at CATUserSettingPath.
    The administrator settings are taken into account only when
    there are user settings for which administrator settings are
    locked. If it is not the case, user settings (user
    customization) are taken into account.
    In this scenario, User setting files have been copied to
    CATUserSettingPath and then Translation or Rotation icon was
    inserted in administrator mode but it is not locked (lock is
    not available for toolbar and commands). Hence CATIA is
    reading settings from CATUserSettingPath (copied settings)
    and not from administrator settings (CATReferenceSettingPath)
    and therefore Icon is not visible User mode.
