Difference between "Build" and "Project Only/Build"?

I have a workspace with a number of projects (all custom makefile type) which depend
on each other. I have entered the dependencies for each project under "build order".

Now, I would expect that "Build" from a project's context menu builds all prerequisite projects
and the selected project, while "Project Only/Build" only builds the selected project. However,
both menu items appear to build only the selected project.

Is it possible to have Codelite build a project and all projects it depends on?

Build from the project menu will build the project + its dependecies (It will not go recursively)
While project only -> project will build the current project without any dependencies

That's what I expected. Only it does not work...

For example:
I have two projects A and B (both have custom build commands).
Project B's build oder is "A", and A's build order is empty.
In the workspace view, I open B's context menu and select "Build".
Result: CodeLite builds B, but not A. Why?
