XAML changes not automatically updating as expected

[bender716]

Problem encountered on https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/maui/first-app-tutorial/modify Operating System: windows

Provide details about the problem you're experiencing. Include your operating system version, exact error message, code sample, and anything else that is relevant.

I am running Windows 10 Pro 22H2 and Visual Studio Community 2022.

When I run this code <Label Text="Hello, World!" SemanticProperties.HeadingLevel="Level1" FontSize="32" HorizontalOptions="Center" /> in the tutorial at https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/maui/first-app-tutorial/modify it says "you can change the XAML user interface (UI) while the application is running and the UI will update automatically." It does not do this. I have to force reload the page to get it to update, this is not automatic. I tried leaving it for 10 minutes, nothing, interacted with it, nothing. It is not updating.

Per the instructions, if I left the sample app running, and updated the XAML, it would update in the app automatically and this did not occur. What am I doing wrong or what settings need updating to make this work correctly?

Thank you in advance for your advice and assistance, it is appreciated.
