How to change first layer above support?

How can I change the layer that gets put ontop of a support? PS does go in a circle, when I really want straight lines, to lower adhesion to the support below.

This is the support top layer:

The first layer PS puts:

This is the 2nd bottom layer above the support and what I ideally want as the bottom layer, instead of the above circular layer. 

Using PS 2.7.1 on Mac Sonoma 14.2

That is not normal for bridges.  We would need to see your saved Prusa Slicer project file to be sure (File>Save Project As).  Then take the 3mf and ZIP it up and attach it here.  A 3mf saved from PS has the model but more importantly all the settings included.  Its a snapshot and allows us to debug issues much more easily.

If I had to guess I'd say you had Extra Perimeters on Overhangs enabled, which is a red/expert setting that is classed as experimental.  That can give a bridge like you pictured rather than a straightforward side to side rectilinear pattern.

The Extra Perimeter on Overhangs is indeed the setting which caused this concentric layer. Without it, I get the proper rectilinear bridge layer
