Does the build ignore your config-specific settings?

[martinwhitman]

I have a heck of a time switching between Debug and Release configurations or between iOS and Android. For instance, my prebuild command to switch app icons (to result in a similar appearance) between iOS and Android is often (but not always) ignored. Similarly, my config settings when switching between Debug and Release or between other configurations are often (but not always) ignored. My latest gripe is that my debug builds are still being optimized/linker-ed after switching back to debug from release. Can anyone give me any suggestions? Is this a Visual Studio issue? Am I struggling with something that is easy for the rest of you? Just looking for a little external perspective, thank you.
