As already mentioned in another post I did some investigation to having reliable workarea settings in Simplify3D for my A350 using dual extruder and quick swap kit.
Look here:
As I was not using Simplify3D since dual extruder is available I had to do also some more basic investigations on how to get reliable printig results with it at all.
I started with the “official” dual extruder settings and reworked it a bit.
I only did some simple objects and run into several problems that my resume is that I can not recommend using Simplify3D for dual extrusion jobs using PLA and Breakaway PLA for supports. (Others may work better but I would not realy expect).
The prime towers are not very well working. As it does 2 separte towers/blocks you should consider a ooze shild in addition. The towers can not be freely placed and are very close to the printed object.
Tool change is done over the object and you can end up with some oozed out blobs from the other extruder hanging on your object.
The tower of the breakaway PLA is very instable and not sticking very well to the bed after some countermeseares the only reliable solution was printing on a raft of breakaway PLA.
As the scripting possibilities of Simplify3D are not discribed very well, and how to use variables (and an official list of available variables) is not described at all (but thats no news), it is a bit tricky to implement own scripts.
