I have come across a very weird behavior with a standard text widget in Mendix Studio Pro 8.6.0.  Steps to reproduce:  I have created a new page and pasted into this page elements from other pages using copy/paste. These Elements include containers and layout grids or other text widgets. If I want to change the description of the text I double-click into the dialog and change the property “caption” and type a new text. So far so good. I can preview this in the design mode, and I see the change properly. Still good. After that I decide to compile the stuff and preview it in locally. And now it gets weird. The old value that was in the widget before stays there and I cannot get it updated not even by Ctrl+f5. It must be obviously some caching issue because what helped was to delete the element and place there a new text widget with the right (same) properties.  I noticed that after I have restarted the workstation completely problem was resolved. But I have seen this several times, so I wonder if you have similar experience with this and do you have some recommendation how to prevent this?
