Material Display

Having a problem with the way AC 18 is displaying the materials in elevation and rendering. The double hung window and the door have masonry jack arches with a keystone. On the door it shows a stucco finish but on the window it shows as brick even thought window dialog box shows it to be stucco(which is what I want. Any suggestion as to what I'm doing wrong?

The rendering is even more confusing. The keystone look like OSB, the white stucco over the doors is pink and the stucco jack arch over the window renders as brick. The jack arch and keystone over the garage door renders as white stucco, yet all the settings are the same.

I figured it out. You have to go to ALL PARAMETERS not just CUSTOM SETTINGS.
