While I'm theming I find myself needing to clear the cache every time I make a minor change to the CSS. Is there a way to automatically rebuild the theme registry (clear the cache) during development?

Something similar to this setting in the Zen theme for Drupal 7. 

  • "Rebuild theme registry and output template debugging on every page."

Accepted answer

I realized that part of my problem was that I still had caching and aggregation of css and Javascript turned on. 

Things got much better, once I turned the compression and aggregation off at: 

admin/config/development/performance

If you have the Devel module installed, there is a setting on the "Devel settings" page at /admin/config/development/devel labeled "Rebuild the theme registry on every page load". I think enabling that will get you what you want.

Funny thing... I can't deselect these two checkboxes under admin/config/development/performance, because they are greyed out (inactive). Anyone has any idea why?
