Slic3r wipe tower "change depth" per extruder
As described here I also have serious color bleeding whenever I use white in a print.
I could increase the "per color change depth", but since the other colors don't have the bleeding when they're darker it would be a waste of time and filament in 75% of the swaps.
So it would be very handy to be able to specify this per extruder.
If the option could be switched to “per extruder” (and perhaps a “switching to” or “switching away”) you could simply say that, when switching to the extruder that has white, do 20mm. Or when switching away from the extruder that has PVA, do 20mm as to not mix in PVA in your model.

Fair point! I like your idea.

Have a look at KISS + post processor. That allows for per filament purging, along with variable layer height printing with multiple colours.

Quite possible that it does what I need, but first of all: multi-material is pro-version only. I'm not prepared to just fork out money to another slicing application without having been able to test that it actually works.
Secondly, an application that forces you to store its configuration files in the /Applications folder just gives me the creeps.
I like Slic3r fine, I just wanted to share my take on things.

It's been on the wish list for some time now.

Should've looked on github first. My bad.
Thanks for the pointer.

No problem. I wish they'd get on it.
