How do I use these script boxes for color change

I've been googling all morning and all I can find is information that is several years old.
I wan to simply change colors at a particular layer height, but I have not found anything referring to the new layout. Instead I see posts telling me to place some code in boxes that aren't there anymore.
Using 5.1.2.
They advertise all these great features, but never tell you how to use them as far as I can see.

I used the code show on the post you referred me to {IF "[current_layer_number] == 25"}M600
The printer paused and parked out of the way, and I changed the filament but the following problems occurred:
A: The nozzle was cooling off quickly. What's the code to keep the heat on?
B: Once I got the filament changed, I hit the "Print" button on the controller, the nozzle heated up again, the machine did not resume printing, but did start extruding a pile of filament.
I'm still missing some code script it seems. Does something need to go in the "Post Layer Change Script" field?
