    Changing ext wall materials back to default

    I know this questions has been asked before, but how do I change one wall back to it's default material after changing exterior walls? ie. I want a concrete block wall to show as conc block and the rest of the walls as brick.

    You will need to isolate the wall that is to be concrete block by using wall breaks and then open the isolated wall section's dialog and change the "Wall Type" to "Concrete Block" and set the rest to "Brick 4 or 6" or create a custom wall type for the Brick. There are other methods to do this but I believe this is the most basic way.
