General Board / Re: Setting (default) Available DataTypes for Attributes of a Class in a Package

Ah. So if language is a red herring, I am still left looking for what determines that dropdown of datatypes for an Attribute.

It certainly looks — https://imgur.com/gallery/DddQy74 — language-centric?

General Board / Setting (default) Available DataTypes for Attributes of a Class in a Package

« on: July 02, 2021, 01:15:12 am »

I have created a Package for a domain model and set its Language to <none>. I create a diagram in the package and set its language to <none> as well.

I create a Class by dragging from the toolbox to the diagram. I want the datatypes available for the attributes of the class to be the UML profile datatypes (Boolean, Integer, String etc) but mostly the datatypes available look like C or Java : boolean, byte, double, char etc.

(1) How do I get new classes to default to the language of the Package or the diagram?

(2) How do I get an existing class to offer me UML datatypes for its attributes?

Concerning question 2: I can see that if I set a class's language to C# and then click off the class and click on it again I am then offered C# language datatypes for the attributes. But I see nothing I can do to get the UML datatypes. Setting language to <none> or to blank doesn't have any effect.
