Additional Filament not listed ?

When loading additional filaments, there is no PBT filament option; therefore how can I add it ?

Caveat: I haven't printed PBT.  Thanks for bringing it to my attention; it has some interesting properties.

I couldn't find a pure PBT filament but there are a lot of blends available - as such the characteristics differ according to the other constituents of the blend.   Because of this there doesn't seem to be a single, generic, loading temperature that could be attached to a PBT label so, for now at least, the 'custom' option will have to be used.

Cheerio,
