need nGen filament profile in MMU

I have a MK3s + MMU2 and using Prusa Slicer all with up to date firmware. I want to add the colorFabb nGen filament profile to the MMU configuration but cannot find a way other than manually copying the settings from a filament currently in the list. Is there a way to copy from the 'single' configuration to the MMU configuration list? 

Would there be any difference between profiles in the single vs MMU lists? The lists are different but don't know why. 

The colorFabb nGen prints amazingly. 

thanks for your help

RE: need nGen filament profile in MMU

If you go to the plater > filaments, if you click on the down arrow of the filament selection (where it normally says Generic/Prusament/etc) at the bottom of the list there is an entry that says "----Add/Remove Filaments---" if you click on that it will bring up a window of all the filament profiles. colorFabb nGen should be in there.

(the entry looks like a header rather than something you can click on, but it will bring up a menu to select other types.)

hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes, I see the Add/Remove Filaments and tried using that a number of times. nGen is available for machine present titled 'single' (for use with a printer having the MMU installed but printing with a single filament) but it is not available for the machine present titled MMU2S. I ended up writing down all of the settings and manually making a new profile from a filament profile that existed but didn't seem like that was a good way to do that. Perhaps Prusa hasn't tested the nGen material in the MMU and therefore, didn't make a profile for it. There were parameters that I could not change so I'm not sure how you would create a new profile for the MMU from scratch.

Thanks again for the reply,
