I sliced a dual extrusion part after importing the edited material and restarting Cura. The ";Test for tool change" was not present in the entire gcode. Is there some notation I'm missing for a dual extruder printer, like extruder_no_0.

I'll see if I can test this and circle back. I was a bit confused for a second with the M117 command but then smiled when I realized what it did. I should also add that I tried to add [ machine_extruder_start_code = ";Test for tool change T0" ] to the extruder settings in an unzipped extruder 0 profile setting but was unsuccessful and resulted in a bunch of error messages from Cura on startup complaining about corrupt profiles.

Is there any way to have a tool change be set per profile. I want to run different materials but each would require a different gcode with my setup. I'm willing to hand write in the config files or in the profile settings but I'm not sure if this is even possible.
