Change color of walls in one sheet only

I created a Duplicate View. Then I went to Edit Visibility/Graphics under properties for that new view. When I change the wall colors it changes them for all other sheets as well. How do I just change the colors on this one duplicate view? Thanks

You must have "Duplicated as Dependent" so they are the same views.  Right click the view you want to change and make it an Independent View.  Then when you modify the Visibility Graphics it will apply to that one view only.

Nope I did Duplicate. When I right click it the Floor Plan under Views "Convert to independent view" is greyed out.

Can you show a screenshot of the V/G overrides window where it was changed?

Just as I expected, you are changing Object Styles, which caries through the project, not just one View. Undo it, and change the walls category color by open that view,  type in VG to open the VG window, and change directly there, under Model tab > Walls.  Do not click Object Styles button.

Object Styles will change lines for the entire project.  Change just under Model Categories or Annotation Categories.

The view got a template assigned to it. Look at the view properties and change View template to None.
