Is there a feature in the Prusa Slicer equivalent to Bambu Labs Plate Management?

No there is not. Feature request https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/10704 on github though.

Thanks for your response and Github link.
After reading the github posts and all the possibilities I'll hold off throwing my hat in the Me Too column. It likely would get more complex than I'm willing to learn at this time. Too many more important existing features I need to concentrate on. 😉

Never hurts to add a thumbs up (much better than posting a me too on a request). Although as you say, there are far more important things, given there are over 3500 open issues at the moment.

Sounds like a potentially useful idea but probably only of value to a few selected users. When I have more objects than fit on a plate, I usually get by by simply marking some of them as non-printable, pressing A again to align everything else, slice, and print, and then swapping printable and non-printable status and repeating. Not as cool but does the job

RE: Prusa Slicer - Plate Management Feature ???
Prusa Slicer already arranges Objects into plater sized groups if they don't fit. Try it. You can then select all Objects and 'slide' the whole lot over so that different groups are central to the bed. Then they can be sliced as a group. Not as convenient as the method in Bambu or Orca. But given how they are based on PS then it shouldn't be too difficult to back port it if the devs want to.
