Liveedit not detecting changes in css or javascript

Created November 22, 2014 06:54

Windows 7 x64
Phpstorm 8.0.2 build 139.496

I am running th debugger on index.html, all edits in the html file are triggering a reload as expected however not when I edit a .css or .js file
Liveedit is set to manual so when I make a change in an html file then do a ctrl s, the page refreshes correctly, but if I update a .css or .js file and do a ctrl s the html page does not refresh.

Thanks,
Dan

Please change the update mode to 'Auto'.
Changes in HTML code are updated in the browser automatically regardless of the selected Update mode; but this is not the case for js and css - in Manual mode, you need to click the Update Application button on the debugger tool window or in the main Run menu, or press Ctrl+F10 on Windows and Linux (or cmd+F10 on Mac OS) to get page refreshed.
