Thank you so much for this answer! Saved us so much of a headache. I know this is an old post but I hope you’re having a great day :).
I have an A1 Mini I’ve been trying to figure this out all day and I just found out how. There’s a chance the original setting was changed with updates over the past 15 months. Under the Process tab: Objects> Plate 1 > First Layer Filament Sequence> Customize
Went through ALL of the suggestions. No luck. Then… I looked closer at the (downloaded) project.
My Text was 0.25 ABOVE the surface. (printing face down) So - guess which will print first no matter what in that case? I adjusted to flush with the surface and voila! Perfect!
Sometimes it’s the simple things.
Hi Quinnii. I was searching for the solution to this same problem when I came across this forum page. One can use your solution of changing the order of filaments on the AMS. To add to this, if one needs to print one set of color before another, then, clubbing (merging) those objects together solves the problem too. This is after factoring in the filament sequence, if that’s needed. Keep them close by if needed. Hopefully this helps someone who searches for this.
Thanks! I’ve was printing a light box and kept getting black stringing in the white section
This thread TLDR, found the answer : If you click on the setting nut next to the plate you can choose first layer filament order!!!
Wow I can’t believe how a simple problem has no solution, when it’s allready essentially built into the slicer. You can allready set the object element order in the slicer, and yet the slicer does not follow this order? maybe they should just do that… what black first, just move black objects to the top of the list… best of both worlds IMO. of course it would not follow the order for all colour changes since it can swap between colours hundreds of times depending on the complexity etc… but at least following the “first” time is sees a colour makes sense in the object list.
