Specify layer numbers at "Start/Stop printing at height"

This is an easy one:
If I want to divide my print into parts for changing the material (color), I use "Start/Stop printing at height" in the Advanced Settings.
To find out the right layer, I use the Preview Mode. There, only layer numbers are visible, not height.
So it would make sense, if I could use the layer number I found for the "Start/Stop printing at height" setting and not only a height in mm.
It's a "nice to have" ...
Thanks!

Heights are at the bottom left of the preview screen/window just above the sliders. Pretty hard to see .

Thanks for the hint. In fact I overlooked these numbers.
