MK4+MMU3 color change by layer height
Hello,
I'm having problems to set a filament change by layer height with MMU3. I want everything up to a certain layer to print with extruder 2 with white PLA, and after this layer change to the extruder 5 with black PLA to print the rest.
When trying to add a color change on Mk4 MMU Profile on the layer bar (just like without MMU but with manual swap) it gives this error (and it doesn't allow to select extruder). And slicing it afterwards doesn't change the color.
The multimaterial print tool also doesn't allow to change colors by layer height. My model sides are smoth so smart fill won't work.
On normal Mk4 profile (without MMU3) I can set color change on layer height, but it's M600 so I would have to manually change the filament.
How can I do a color/extruder change on MMU3 based on layer height?

Thanks, I got this working!
I feel this shouldn't be that complicated.... or at least well explained in help articles:

there is often more than one way to do a task...
learn as many different ways to do things, as you can and then apply whatever you find easiest... and sometimes, the easiest way, is not your normal way,
