Usually I have the Feature caching turned ON - and its quite a nice way and a lot faster to debugg a large workspace with this option. However as I am used to hitting F5 I accidentally hit it every now and then and then "resets" all the caching. Is it possible to disable F5 when feature caching is on - or get a pop-up showing: "You currently have Feature caching turned on - do you really-really-REALLY want to delete all your cache and start all over again?" ?


Thx :)

Been there, done that (too many times)!

It's actually changing in 2019 so that F5 runs only what is needed - ie it will use the caches. If you want to re-run and re-create the caches, it would be Ctrl+F5

Hi @sigtill - are we OK to close this idea now? I think F5 doesn't reset the caching now, unless you use Shift + F5
