complex profile walls

How do I tell Archicad what the exterior side of a complex profile wall is.
I've created a pony wall that's cmc block on the lower part and 2x4 framing on the upper part of the wall but when I place the wall in a floor plan the walls are reversed the exterior is on the inside.

Everything to the left of the "x" (origin) is 'inside'.

Use Capture on a "standard" composite wall to create a complex profile to make this more clear (see picture).
