How to increase the amount of filament wiping on change

How do you increase the amount of wiping for a filament change?

I have seen somewhere in the settings the ability to increase the wipe distance for each filament tool. When switching from black to clear I need to extend the amount of wiping so that clear remains very clear, and isn't fogged out.

But I have looked and looked and cannot now found this setting.

Thanks for your help.

RE: How to increase the amount of filament wiping on change

I created a simple project for my MK3/S with two objects and two extruders. I assigned a different extruder to each object. Now I had a Purging volumes button in the right panel beside infill, that allowed me to change the purging volume for each tool (extruder). I cannot test it right now as I am still rebuilding my Y-axis.  Sorry, I prefer to provide solutions that I have tested and know work,. This time I cannot, but you have been waiting for a few days for some answer. Maybe someone with more mutlicolour printing can elaborate further or correct me.

Quality is the Journey, not the Destination. My limited prints->
