z adjustement in prusa slicer

how can I move an STL to a Z different than 0 (sitting on the plater)?

I need it fo correctly align 2 colors of a single object (see example picture)

You load a part into an existing part similar to loading a modifier.

Thnakyou!!!

now it's perfect, the 2 parts are also in the right position (I assume this comes when they have same origin in CAD)

one additional question, how can I assign different materials? I found the "change extruder" command only for the main part, not for the sub-parts

MMU is out of my league; I don't own one and have zero experience with them.  Someday... lol.

But - I just opened Plicer and found this control (hidden in plain sight, but you have to click on it):

ps: I'll note the extended Extruders line below the part was accidental and as far as I can guess only modifies how purges are handled for that part. I don't think it is required to change color.

Again - I am 100% guessing how all this works.

Without manuals, reading the designers mind is rather difficult.
