Details Change Color and Fills Change Pattern Occasionally

My gray fill pens 19 & 113 keep visually changing to different pens 124 & 56, even when I select the fill it notes 19 & 113, so nowhere does it show 124 & 56 are my selected pen types.

*This image below is showing the color that it changes to, in no instance can I find this as the chosen color:

Also, fills change to the same hatch despite fill type/building material being different than it shows:

The renovation filter was set to Proposed, I changed it to Existing, then back to Proposed. That fixed the issue, so I repeated that process for all of my details. Strange bug.. Thanks for your time @Ricardo Lopez

Hi @architect,

 

As it appears in your second screenshot, that cyan color is what you chose for pen number 104 (default description: Objects - Cut Fills).

Try to change that customized "ALL" penset in your details view.

Thanks @Ricardo Lopez , would you note why that pen number 124 is overriding my selected fills? 
I'm only selecting/showing pen 124 as I figured out that is the pen that is overriding my other gray fills:

Is there a graphic override combination set in that view that is changing that pen for all the background fills...?

No graphic overrides are on.
