Slic3r MMU2 profile eliminates user preset filaments
Hi,
When selecting MMU2 printer profile in Slic3r, the majority of my user preset filament profiles disappear. Any idea why this happens or suggestion on how to work around it? All of them were derived from system preset filament profiles and not built from scratch.
Thanks in advance.

wow, I didn't notice that. odd.
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.

Standard MK3 profile
With MMU profile

Looks like this is intentional behavior. All non MMU2 filament profiles have this line under "dependencies"
!(printer_notes=~/.*PRINTER_VENDOR_PRUSA3D.*/ and printer_notes=~/.*PRINTER_MODEL_MK(2.5|3).*/ and single_extruder_multi_material)
So any user presets derived from non MMU2 profiles will be hidden. The three that show up for me were created in an earlier version of Slic3r so they do not have this dependency listing.

You can change this for your filament profiles by editing the "Dependencies".
With the MMU you often need to print a few degrees cooler than is optimal for single material prints. So this behavior is intentional, to keep you from accidentally printing a multimaterial print with a single material profile, or vice-versa.
