How can I get cells to translate over using the dgnstyler from a mapping database?

Every time I try and style a dgn for cells, I get a warning (9 heterogeneous aggregate features were split for the DGNV8 Writer into homogeneous features containing a total of 9 point, 9 curve, 0 area and 0 text geometries). Why is this happening and how can I get FME to create my cells in a dgn file?

To write cells you want to add a cell library. Then you write point features to the DGN assigning a cell name from the library to the point feature. This can be done using the DGNStyler or assigning the name to the attribute igds_cell_name using an AttributeCreator.

It appears you try assigning cell definitions to aggregate objects instead of point objects.
