Color Change on Text?
I have a badge with extruded multi-text (will be black base and white text). when slicing detects that it is a logo and wish color change automatically. I selected Yes.
During the print, asks for filament change for the text. Loaded white filament. Once white is completed, asks to unload and again. I loaded the black filament again, thinking it was going to finish the base. But it actually finished with another layer of black filament on top of the 1st white text ?
Little confused on the last step
RE: Color Change on Text?
There must be another filament swap in the file. Best if you can upload a zip-compressed 3mf project file (Save as, under the Prusaslicer File menu, then compress). This way we can check all your settings and see why it's doing what it's doing.

thankx for taking a look at it !!
RE:
No file attached. Did you zip-compress it? Or the forum software will silently reject the 3mf file ☹️ We've asked for 3mf uploads for YEARS but it has fallen on deaf ears.

oooo looks like it get rejected and i selected the wrong file lol.
RE: Color Change on Text?
Hi there bellow is an attached file that will only ask for 1 color change to do white text it is a 3mf file so you will need to slice it dont change any settings just press slice and you will be good the reason it asked you for black again was because in the file you added it
Please help me out by downloading a model it's free and easy but really helps me out https://www.printables.com/@Hello_474427/models

This is always a double-sided sword. In your case, it detected that the "Opus 1" text was taller than the other text, so it applied two color changes, one for the text in italics because that extends above the base plate, then another color change for Opus 1, because that extends above the italic text. I prefer to apply color changes myself as I don't really trust PS's algorithm, but at least make sure you double check in the slicer preview what PS has done to your model and if it's really what you intended:
