What do different column icons mean on DB diagrams?

I noticed at least 5 different glyph icons used for different columns on DB diagrams. Do they have any meaning or are they assigned randomly?

I understand PK and indexed columns are highlighted with yellow overlays and NOT NULL with a dot overlay. I'm wondering about icons themselves.

Hi,
Could you provide a sample DDL for your table? Possibly you need to click 1:1 scale size to get rid of this effect:

Thank you.

OK, yes, after rescaling I don't see this issue anymore. Good to know!
