Resolved: Octoprint swallowing extruder switch commands

Third Party Software
1

Finally I could no longer control my desire for the dual extruder module. And run into a problem immediately:

Given a nice two-color (or two-material) model I have tried two workflows

  1. Slice with Luban, export to A350 via WLAN, start ==> printing is ok, both extruders are used.

  2. Slice with Luban, export to gcode file. Load gcode file into Octoprint, let Octoprint control the A350. ==> printing is done only with the first extruder.

Apparently Octoprint swallows/removes/ignores the gcode to switch extruders. Which I find annoying, because Octoprint works nicely for controlling the printer. I assume that some gcode editing coul solve the problem - has anybody ever attempted this?
