Touchgfx and FSMC

[Vahid Ajallooeian]

As far as I searched, I couldnt find any instruction on using Touchgfx via fsmc. Even examples on Touchgfx designer was to use LTDC feature of microcontrollers. I wonder if developers of touchgfx has extend their platform to FSMC or if they have any intention to provide some code for using touchgfx on fsmc. I used stemwin successfully some days ago and I wonder if it is possible to use touchgfx on stm32f407vgtx (Discovery board.)

TouchGFX is interface agnostic (memory, display and otherwise), in a sense. There's no direct coupling between touchgfx and FMC/FSMC/LTDC/DSI/SPI/8080/.... It all depends on how you configure your hardware and what your intentions are.

EDIT:

With TouchGFX Generator (through CubeMX 5.5) you can configure TouchGFX to use a custom display interface and thus FMC/FSMC/SPI etc. Here's an article about it - Let me know if you have questions.

Please help me understand your response correctly. As far as I understood, you are saing that a solution is on the way, may be on the near future, that will help designer use touchgfx on any st platforms using cubemx. If I understood correctly, how much time should we wait approximately for these tones of surprise?

Exactly right. Early next year!

Has this solution been released?

It seems that the solution has been released, but not enough documentation or tutorial (video, website or pdf) is available although some poor video is on the net. I am working on it, and it seems touhgfx is far better than EMWIN library, but so far the real amount of memory needed has not yet been specified. In reality, I havent yet been able to see the touchgfx on my board which is stm32f407 discovery, but still working on it.
