Editing CMakeCache when using CMakePresets

[tobias (BilboBeutlin89)]

I am using CMakePresets to configure my CMake project.
The CMakePresets defines some values, which only sometimes needed to be adjusted. (used by the whole company, so the values should not always be changed)

The most convenient way of editing CMakeCache variables in with the UI editor provided by the extension.
When a variable is adjusted in the UI editor, which is also set in the CMakePresets, then it gets overriden, when CMake is configured again.

Is there a way that this does not happen or a good way to see, when editing the CMakeCache with UI, that the variable that is adjusted is set in the CMakePresets?

Thanks for any help :)

You have the option to define user presets in CMakeUserPresets.json that inherits from a project-defined preset and makes changes on top of it.
