title: IntelliJ (2020.2) - How disable 'Build project automatically' for a project based on Gradle?
body: <p>I am an Eclipse/STS user/developer, now trying to use IntelliJ Idea (CE)</p>
  <ul>
  <li>2020.2.(1,2,3)</li>
  </ul>
  <p>For a project based on Gradle, how spring-integration, when I open the IDE it happens the following</p>

  <p>Ok, let the IDE load the project ... but</p>

  <p>From above, that is the problem, I don't want that the IDE starts automatically to build/rebuild the project. I just need, open the project and that's all.</p>
  <p><strong>Observation:</strong> for example in Eclipse/STS exists the option to disable <em>Build Automatically</em></p>

  <p>I did do a research in the Web and I read the following posts and questions:</p>

  </ul>
  <p>Sadly the dialog options were changed but ...</p>
  <p>Therefore:</p>

  <p>From above, seems nothing to do.</p>

  <p><strong>Observation:</strong> from above observe the <code>Build project automatically</code> option is disabled</p>
  <p>Even with that disabled and after to restart the IDE, I must always stop manually the build process</p>

  <p>So what is missing? or Do I need a special extra plugin to accomplish my goal?</p>
