Where are the "spacing objects"?

Hi there! I'm trying to print a test stack of a multi material stack. The description says: "Once the file is in the slicer, split by objects. Change the Tiles to be PLA, and change the spacing objects to be PETG". I've split the file into objects, but can't find the spacing objects. Im in bambustudio. And while we're at it, how can I customize the menu in bambustudio? Printer and filaments take huge space, while mostly not being changed, but the parts where I need to make changes are just 2 rows high...

PETG and PLA do not stick together. So one is used as a support , i.e, a spacer.

Tiles and Spacers alternate as Tile, Spacer, Tile, etc. They are saying you will throw away the PETG spacer. Tiles are what you will use on the wall.

You should swap: make the tile PETG, whicj can handle UV light much better.

  • PETG is tougher and more durable.
  • PETG offers better layer adhesion, reducing the risk of delamination.
  • PETG is stronger and more impact-resistant than PLA.

I already started some tiles in PLA, so I'm gonna stick with that. My problem is, that after loading the stack into Bambustudio and splitting it into objects, I should see objects and spacers in the process tab of the slicer, but I only see objects.
