I am in a drawing that I have placed a reference that places a drawing Title
I want to edit the look of that cell
I go to the annotation tools and it open a cell library with teh file I want to edit
I make changes
then open and place a drawing
Teh cell is the same old cell without a change.
Even though the utility takes me to a cell library it is the wrong version.
any help is appreciated.

Eric, I have never used this variable MS_DETAILINGSYMBOLSTYLE_REQUIREDSETTINGS but it seems to allow you to define what are required parts of style. Currently, If you leave try to leave a cell in a symbol style blank or it points to a cell that is no longer valid you will get an error message. I think defining this variable will overcome this issue. Like I said, I have never defined it, but if you look it up in workspace>configuration there is some information about it. Tom
Unknown said:I just wanted to say on the drawing title - instead of changing the color or line weight or style. LEAVE IT AS IT no symbology applied. Mine looks good as drawn but weak as changed. This should be a symbology override like others. with a "Leave alone" option first.
Similar to way old V8i annotation cells worked. A "Use Cell" option would be handy.
Since these new tools are developed as part of Microstation, it would better to pose this question in Microstation Community.Someone might know how to do this already. Or possibility lead to an enhancement request.
Just a thought.

In the file DetailingSymbolStyles, when I open the Detailing Symbol Styles:
When I open the dropdown menu to select a cell I want to use, I see each cell name twice (lik 2 times the same list behind eachother). Any idea how this happened? Is there a way to track where these cells come from?
