Making sense of a Rational Rose class diagram

I'm looking at a UML class diagram that is made using Rational rose and there are some symbols I don't recognize.

For example, beside an attribute, there is a blue square with a lock on it. Does this mean it is private? But beside an operation there is a purple square with a lock? What is the difference between a lock with a purple square and a blue square.

I can't seem to find a legend for a rational rose diagram using using Google, this is fairly frustrating.
