IDE: Debug/Release settings do not change

[Altera_Forum]

I have a problem configuring my compilation parameters in NIOS IDE. 

I opened the window Project/Properties, selected Associated System Library on the left and clicked on its "System Library Properties" button. Now I have two sets of configuration options on the right/top part of the window: debug and release. When I switch from debug to release I see bottom/right part of the window partially change but partially stays the same between debug and release even after I make some changes and hit Apply button.  For example, I want the system library to compile without optimization and with full debug when I configure for "debug" set of options and with no debug and full optimization when I configure it within "release" set of options. Unfortunately the window does not reflect my changes I made in nios2-elf-gcc "General" tab... It looks like the defines for the "Preprocessor" are kept separated between debug/release sets of options.  How do you deal with this problem?

Looks like you may have hit one of the known issues which is documented in the errata.txt in the Nios II documents folder: 

 151588 - Changing active build configuration for a Nios II   project - On the C/C++ build property page, the   configuration dropdown box can be used to select   the active configuration (e.g. Release or Debug).   When the active configuration is changed, this   does not automatically update the rest of the   window containing the settings such as Compiler   flags, optimization level, etc. The user must   deselect then reselect a category (e.g. click on   PreProcessor then General) to see the settings   for that configuration.  Hope that helps.
