it is sized to the proper proportions.
Information about the bitmap is displayed along the

operation deletes all bitmaps in a cell. There is no undo for this operation.
Finally, the modified bitmaps are then added back into the cell in State order sequence.
Note:
There is no provision for editing or deleting only one state of a cell that has multiple states.
