How add a filament profile to FIlament setting combo box

Hello,
I have a stupid question, how to add another filament profile to the Filament setting.
I select  -------Add/Remove filaments------- in the Filaments setting
Filament Profiles Selection in the Configuration wizard dialog window opens.
I select a checkbox next to the desired filament (Prusament ASA)
I click the Finish button in the Configuration window.

But no profile is added to the Filament setting combo box.

What should I do?

thanks in advance for the help

Ok, I found the problem. The filament profiles are tied to the printer profile and I have a custom printer selected.
I guess I have to manually create a filament profile

It is also possible to select a profile - modify this profile and save it with a new name.

As clemens mentions you can save as a custom filament.  You could add a mk3 printer to your setup which will then show the filament when you have it selected.  You could then copy the filament to a new name making sure to use the detach preset button and then save it again so its saved as detached.  That will get you the filament, make sure you check if the linear advance in the filament gcode section is suitable for your printer though (one of the reasons they are printer vendor specific).

 

You could also import this config bundle where I copied (most of them that were available at the time) and made them all detached.  Simply download and then click import config bundle from the file>import option.
