<![CDATA[Creator: Way to update on project changes in the background?]]>Hi all!
Currently, Qt creator only updates on project changes (re-parsing CMakeLists.txt, configuring, generating etc.) when the IDE is in the foreground.

Is there a way to configure that?

I often work on multiple branches in multiple windows (and IDEs), letting AI add new files in one branch while I work on another.
When I switch to the instance of Qt Creator with those new files, it starts to parse, which means waiting for 1-2 minutes instead of me hitting the ground running, and immediately starting to implement.
