basic questions

HI Folks

Using umbrello 1.2.1 (kde3.2 20040204, on mandrake 10.0).

I like it :-)

So, I'm not only new to umbrello, I'm not exactly experienced with uml either 
... but anyway:

I'm using the python code generation option (if that matters), and have two 
questions:

1) If I create a class, why is it that I can only create attributes which are 
integers via the pull-down menu?   (I can type in my own datatypes, but then 
they turn up as UML datatype objects - I would have thought I didn't need to 
do that for language builtins like booleans etc - which indeed do turn up as 
options for return values from operations that I create for the class).

2) I think the above is language independent. Python-wise, is there any chance 
I can get python types like dictionary and lists as datatypes without having 
to create them myself?

(I hope this makes sense)

I guess these could be config or usage things I dont understand, or simply 
functionality that isn't there (yet). Can anyone shed any light on which of 
these is the case?

Thanks in advance,
Bryan
