Any elegant way to change temperature when you change filament?

I'm wanting to print a stamp with a TPU base and a PLA body. I really thought there'd be a way to change the temperature when you changed the filament, but I'm not seeing one.
For now, I'm hand editing the .gcode, but is there a better way?

Maybe I'm missing something, but one can change nozzle temperature on display at any time.

RE:

You can insert custom g-code at a layer in the slicer. It is similar to inserting your filament change, but you right-click to get other options.

Yes, I did find that. I also found that I couldn't do both a filament change and custom GCode at the same layer from within Prusaslicer, and if I copied back in all the commented code from a filament change, PrusaSlicer wouldn't accept it because it contained reserved words.
