Is it possible to print the raft with a particular extruder

I am trying to pro a dual extruder print. How do i choose what extruder to use for the raft ? will it use the primary extruder only ? can it be changed ?

thanks, yeah, i followed those instructions, you can choose the material for the support. But the Raft per se is always by default assigned to the primary extruder, which i need to change to the second extruder. My issue is that PVA doesn't stick into PLA. So i want the raft in PVA. Is it possible to specify the raft to be done by the secondary extruder ?
