PhpStorm LiveEdit HTML works but CSS doesn't

Question

I just set up LiveEdit in PhpStorm 7.0 and downloaded the Chrome Extension "JetBrains IDE Support" v1.25. I also set up a Javascript Debug run configuration. When I run this configuration and edit an HTML file in PhpStorm the page in my Chrome browser reloads as expected. However, if I edit my CSS file the changes are not reflected in my browser unless I reload the page.

Has anyone else had this issue? I've googled quite a bit but haven't come up with anything. I'm stumped because the HTML edits are working fine...

Answer 1

It has been a while since this question was asked, but I stumbled over the same problem recently and couldn't find any help on that topic.

After some experimenting, I found that setting the the Live Edit options from Manual to Auto in (ms): solved the problem.

Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Debugger -> Live Edit -> toggle "Auto in (ms)" on

Hope it helps
