PrusaSlicer Specify brim per piece?

I have a couple of STL's i want to print at once, one of them has a fairly small footprint, so I'd like to put a brim on it, but the other parts do not need it, and I'd like to avoid the hassle of cleaning them. It looks like you can specify top and bottom layers per piece, but I'm not seeing how to deactivate brim per piece.

Please give solution if anyone know.

Right click on the stl, "Add Part" add part of your choice
Make it 0,2mm thick, adjust size and position to suit your needs
Done 🙂

Or, save your project, zip it and upload it. Then someone will help you

You cant (at the moment as of 2.3.3) specify brim per part in Prusa Slicer.

All you can do is manually create a larger 1 layer footprint below/around the small part using the technique Ringarn describes.  Its often used to add 'mouse ears' for problematic spots on a model but can be used under the whole part.  Ive used it myself on some small (<5mm tubes) to give a reasonable base for printing.
