OpenersNotesSection(Spacer1)Details

Textual cells can contain unformatted or formatted text such as styles, buttons, inline cells, etc.

(RefLink[Cell, paclet:ref/Cell])[TextData[string]] or equivalently, (RefLink[Cell, paclet:ref/Cell])[string], represents cells containing unformatted text.

(RefLink[Cell, paclet:ref/Cell])[TextData[expr]] represents a cell containing formatted text with styles, buttons, inline cells, etc.

(RefLink[TextData, paclet:ref/TextData]) is typically used as the contents of a (RefLink[Cell, paclet:ref/Cell]) expression, and not on its own.

Except for low-level notebook expression manipulation, (RefLink[TextData, paclet:ref/TextData]) should not need to be used directly.
