Prusa Slicer - Define Start Location

Hi, 

Is there a way to tell Prusa Slicer which feature to print first? Please see simple sample below. 

I am trying to print the below simple file face down on the bed. If I swap the colour in the below example it will print the outline of the text in black first, complete the black layer then infill the white text. If I slice the below colour it will print the black text entirely and then the rest of the layer in white. This is what I'm trying to achieve as the quality is better. 

The only thing that seems to dictate this is tool order, black is on tool #2 white is on tool #3. I would prefer not to swap filament to force this. 

Cheers, 

Andy

Tool order rules... Prusa slicer prints the lowest extruder number first.

I try to make safe suggestions,You should understand the context and ensure you are happy that they are safe before attempting to apply my suggestions, what you do, is YOUR responsibility. Location Halifax UK

Thanks for the feedback 🙂

Guess I'm swapping filament around.
