If we create a graphics window for GRAPHICS configuration with GUIBuilder for file GUI_App.c

CreateWindow();

The CubeMX is creates function in file STemwin_wrapper.c

void GRAPHICS_Init(void)

{

/* Initialize the GUI */

GUI_Init();

//WM_MULTIBUF_Enable(1);

/* Enable the multi-buffering functionality */

/* Activate the use of memory device feature */

/* USER CODE BEGIN WM_SetCreateFlags */

//WM_SetCreateFlags(WM_CF_MEMDEV);

/* USER CODE END WM_SetCreateFlags */

}

If you delete comments

WM_MULTIBUF_Enable(1);

/* Enable the multi-buffering functionality */

/* Activate the use of memory device feature */

/* USER CODE BEGIN WM_SetCreateFlags */

WM_SetCreateFlags(WM_CF_MEMDEV);

after this, the graphical interface stops running !!!

(Attention!  After deleting comments and compiling, turn off and turn on the power)

The problem is solved by adding a line

WM_MULTIBUF_Enable(1);

/* Enable the multi-buffering functionality */

/* Activate the use of memory device feature */

/* USER CODE BEGIN WM_SetCreateFlags */

HAL_LTDC_ProgramLineEvent(&hltdc, 0); //!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WM_SetCreateFlags(WM_CF_MEMDEV);

/* USER CODE END WM_SetCreateFlags */

And everything works fine!

P.S.

If FREERTOS is used, it is necessary to eliminate one more bug

that I described before
