That’s valid, I missed you didn’t want to achieve your stated goal, only to complain it wasn’t possible, while ignoring it was possible, just nit where you expect it shoukd be located.
That is not the answer.
A bug is an unknown or expected outcome running contrary to the expectations of the code.
This is a feature that doesn’t exist.
Bugs are not the omission of something.
It baffles me that people can be fired up enough to say “why can’t I do this here” to be told “you can, just not ‘there’” and decide “if I can’t do it where I expected it, I refuse to do it all.”
Good luck with your lack of interest in resolving the problem (solutions clearly stated by me months back) and your seeming enjoyment of being annoyed.
Since the functionality is present but not where you want it, a feature request tag (if you genuinely want that feature) or highlighting a rant would have been appropriate.
I think I am missing something here, it seems everyone is explaining how to change the main filament color but not the painted portion? In Malcs example above he changed the main color of the frog but he never showed how to change the painted eyes.
Eh, this is an old thread and a new feature, figured I’d give a current-era way of accomplishing the task. I cant be arsed to keep track of the dates features came out vs forum posts made lol
My example was an example of how to change any colours, I demonstrated changing the red
I demonstrated changing one colour “orange” to “red”, that happened to be the frog’s body, but I didn’t change the model’s body, I changed the colour selected while printing.
I apologise () for only writing a detailed step-by-step guide with images, I assumed the very clear instructions of choose the colour you don’t want and select the colour you do want would allow people the leap of faith to make subsequent changes.
As the eyes contain the colours: white, yellow and black, you repeat the highly detailed steps I provided and swap the white for something else, the yellow for something else and the black k for something else. That assumes you wanted to change all three.
In case anyone says “I didn’t want to change all three”, just change the ones you wish to change in the identical way I detailed them here and every other post I have written this.
You could select (in my example) every colour to be white, that works to, you don’t have to have every colour unique.
That is a different problem to the one we were discussing before you joined in.
For this, you use the paint tools as they are designed.
This has nothing to do with the question of swapping one filament for another. This is you needing to use the paint tool after making sure you have the colours required in the filament chooser first (top left of your screenshot). You have a blue in the selection, if that matches your desire, you don’t have to add a new one.
You then select the colour you wish to use, select the tool that works best (I like the one that matches edges) and touch the area you wish to change, rotating the model until you have all sides.
Repeat for the second change.
Your need is the exact use case for the paint tool.
Had you built the model yourself (I am assuming not), you should have built each section as a different STL object and imported as a single object, then you would select each part individually assigning their colour. This is the fastest, easiest and most precise method.
I have been using the other suggestions here about just changing the colour of filament on the left. But it turns out when you have 21 plates of various colors and painting, it sure messes stuff up.
I am sure Bambu will come up with the same setting in Studio sometime soon. Hint! Hint!
