I am finding making plugins annoying because when i make a quick example to preview it doesn't update saved changes to my code.
To speed up previews (slow previews was a problem in 0.x), the javascript files are cached each time a project is opened. You don't need to re-make your project from scratch - just close and reopen the project, and the cache will be cleared. Just to clarify, it's not the browser caching javascripts - it's Construct 2 itself.
Even closing and reopening the project was a bit annoying when doing my own development, so I switched off caching for myself in debug builds. However, you're right that would be useful for other plugin devs, so I'll add a 'developer mode' switch somewhere which will switch off caching, then the scripts are re-loaded every time you preview.

I don't understand - "it adds it but without it showing"? Does it add it or not? Where are you looking? Also, Arima is right - reports should go on the tracker - thanks.
