Printing Mod PLates in other filaments

OK, I’ve searched for over 1/2 hour and I can’t find a way to alter the filament options for the modplates. I’d like to print the RH side (facing printer) in PETG and/or ABS . How can I expand the filament options? It’s very frustrating!

I’m having trouble understanding your question, could you clarify? can you not select a different filament for a specific part? or are you trying to change print settings for a specific filament profile?

Without knowing which plates you want to print, the question is difficult to understand.
I think you have selected a template that has several parts on one plate and you want to print one of them in another material.
If I have understood correctly?
To do this, click on Add Plate in the upper right corner and move the part that should get a different material onto it and select a different material.

If I have misunderstood your problem, please explain it again and link the 3mf file to it.

Sorry I wasn’t clear.
@Luukmaster I want to print the pegboard modplate for the RH side of the printer (as you face it) in PETG or ABS. This is the first 4 plates of the 10, IIRC. When I select the 3mf file for the pegboard sides Studio will not let me change the filament, it will only allow the preset which is PLA Basic.
@Jim-Knopf I’ll try what you suggest. Two of the plates are multi-part but I want those as one type of filament so changing them up should be the same as a single part on the new plate, if I’m understanding correctly.

OK, figured it out! At the top header in Studio it was set to “Project Inside Pre-sets”. When I changed that to system pre-sets it allowed me to change the filament options.
