Hi daitranthanhoa ,

you see the difference because InDesign CC 2017 automatically is using graphic cells ( or converting text cells to graphic cells ) instead of text cells if you place an image to an otherwise empty text cell.

Workaround:

Put some text into the text cell, could be a blank character and place again.

Afterwards remove the blank character.

With contents present in a text cell InDesign will not convert a text cell to a graphic cell if you selected an insertion point to place an image.

Regards,
Uwe
