Shouldn't there be a way to change the current generator in the CMake

No, once the generator is set and you have run cmake once, you need to
create a new build tree or wipe out the one you created the first time.
CMake stores a bunch of information about the compiler in the cache
and other files in the build tree. It does not know how to change all
that without a clean tree.
It does not seem like cleaning the build tree from within the CMake GUI
should be a hard programming task, if the end-user wishes to change the
current generator. Nonetheless thanks for the information.
