In Intelligent Cube editor, the default display attribute forms cannot be modified after choosing "Use the following attribute forms" and adding a new attribute form in "Attribute Display". All the attribute forms are in bold type and will display in Intelligent cube reports. It happens in MicroStrategy Developer 9.4.x-10.x.
