How to temporarily override a material?

Is it possible to tempolarily assign a specific color to my column and later change it back to the original one which is inherited from the IfcWallType?

I could be wrong, but BBim used to allow me to do Approach #01.

Approach #01 I tried but failed

  1. Start a Demo project.
  2. Add a default column whose type is IfcColumnType/C1
  3. Now, create the following:
    1. Style: RED
    2. Material: HOT
  4. Assign RED to HOT
  5. Asssign Hot Material to my column
  6. Now the color of my column turns red
  7. But,here is a problem... Everytime I add new a column whose type is IfcColumnType/C1, the color is red...

Approach #02 I tried but failed

I used "Assign Material to Selected" but cannot make it..

  1. Press "Assign Material to Selected" under Material
  2. It seems OK, but the profile is now gone.
  3. Plus, now I cannot change the length.
  4. I believe it should look like the below:

Side note

I am using the following versions:

  • Windows: 11
  • blender: 4.2.2
  • Bonsai: v0.8.1-alpha241009-0eb713a
