Not possible to enable features when building project

[RichoDemus]

Environment

• CLion 2019.3
• Windows 10 pro

Problem description

I want to set a feature when building my project (Ctrl+F9)
I've gone through the settings (Lang&Framew/Rust) but the option seems to be lacking

Steps to reproduce

Create a new project, press Ctrl+F9 (build project)
it will print something like this:
C:/Users/<username>/.cargo/bin/cargo.exe build --color=always --all --all-targets

what I'm expecting
adding something like --features "my-feature" in some configuration box in settings and then getting
C:/Users/<username>/.cargo/bin/cargo.exe build --color=always --all --all-targets --features "my-feature"

You can enable the experimental build tool window by setting org.rust.cargo.build.tool.window variable to true (see Actions > Registry...).

Then you can just add --features "my-feature" to "Command" field:

Thanks for the response, but this only applies to when I run that cargo command, not when I do "build project" (Ctrl+F9) right? while this workaround works, it's a bit unergonomic to not be able to build normally. It also prevents me from running the code by clicking the green triangles in intellij)

@RichoDemus Sorry for the long response.

If org.rust.cargo.build.tool.window is enabled "build project" should build the current selected Run configuration. You can see the actual build command line in the Build tool window:

I see thanks
Any words on when this will not be hidden by experimental flags?

I hope we will merge #4254 soon and after that, we can enable it by default.
