Go to Family (Project Browser) and look for Profile.

Edit the wall type with the preview open. Then click on reveal and see what profile is loaded. You will need to search for it in explorer if you don't already know where it is saved.

Once you find it, open it and make your change to the profile. It should just be 2d lines. Keep the same insertion point (where the 2 reference planes intersect).

Once you make your changes, go to the big R and save as a new profile. Before you close it, hit the "load into project" button.

Now go to the project and edit the wall like before. Choose reveal, and select the new profile.
