Rebar Cut Pattern Not Changable

I cannot change the rebar cut pattern. I need to change the color to a grey. I have tried to adjust the material, Visibility Graphics, Override VG, etc. with not success. I am trying to change the larger vertical rebars.

Rebar does not have a fill pattern representation like other Revit element so trying to add an overriding solid fill pattern and colour wont work in this instance

You can edit the Object Style but this will update all rebar in the model.

Thank you for that resource. The answer is the change the "cut lines" parameter.

Apologies I presumed that knowing it was not a Fill/Pattern issue you would use Cut Lines, however I should have added it too.
Glad it’s all sorted.
