The manual states you can change the value of an attribute in an object (instance) by setting the "Value" column in the Attributes list. But it doesn't seem to do anything with it when I generate code. My object is instantiated, but it still has the default "Initial Value". What do I have to do to make it actually set the value to what I specified?

I don't understand. When would you want the attribute to be set to this value?
Can you add a a link to the page in the manual?

Basically, say you have a class called "Car" with a member attribute called "color" of type char*. The manual states I can create two instances with that attribute set per instance. If I have itsRedCar and itsBlueCar, I should be able to set the color attribute by specifying it in the Value column on the attributes page of the object. "red" for itsRedCar and "blue" for itsBlueCar. This sets the values in my diagrams correctly, but it does nothing in generated code.

I tried it for a simple integer type too. Nothing.

I'm using Rhapsody 7.3. No patches.

Does anybody know? I tried it with Rhapsody 7.5 with no change. I'm obviously doing something wrong, or assuming that it will generate the code. It shows the attributes correctly for each object in the diagrams. Does it not generate code like that? Is that for documentation only?
