Cell Type
There are two types of cells: graphic and point.
The symbology (color, line style, and line weight) of a graphic cell is determined when it is created, whereas a point cell assumes the active symbology when placed. The active template and level of a parametric cell is applied at the time of placement. Graphic and parametric cells rotate when a view is rotated, while a point cell is view-independent. A point cell can be especially useful for text.
The differences between graphic, point, and parametric cells are summarized in this table:
