First Layer Filament Changes
I'm printing a tetrahedron with different colors and text on each face. PrusaSlicer correctly orients the color changes on each face into the center of the model. However, on the first layer it brings those color changes horizontally into the bottom face. This causes those colors to show through around the edges of the text on the bottom surface. Is there a way in PrusaSlicer to prevent those color changes around the text?
Please save your project as a .3mf file

Zip the .3mf and post it here. It will contain both your part and your settings for us to diagnose.
Cheerio,
RE: First Layer Filament Changes
Here's the zipped .3mf.
This is one of the features of painting in the slicer, it's always better to accomodate such colour changes in the original geometry - in this case by assembling your tetrahedron from four smaller pyamid parts stacked together. That way you load them as parts and assign each to a different extruder.
You might use modifiers to encapsulate the script in a block which you assign to the desired extruder but this is likely to add unwanted perimeters.
Cheerio,
Hmmm. I may have been a little obscure there.
Imagine exploding the tetrahedron like this:
... and colouring each part seperately.
Attached is a zip of a set of files that can be loaded together as parts and each assigned to a different extruder.
Cheerio,
