Intellij android resources gen

Issue

I'm experiencing a strange behaviour from Intellij that I never had before. I don't know if it's related with this new update (14.0.3) or what. So what happens is every time I add a new resource, let's say a new .xml or a new View in a previous .xml file, my R file doesn't get updated, I've to compile the hole project again, otherwise it warns me about not finding that resource. I've tried to delete the gen folder but it doesn't work either and it gets worse, all my R references get mixed up so I end up with CastExceptions and misplaced drawables, the only was is to re-compile again... It never happen to me before.

Anyone experienced this kind of behaviour?

Solution

So I've contacted JetBrains support and their response was:
